My condlolences to Roger & Janice’s family. Janice & I were friends for nearly 30 years, beginning when she was my hairstylist & continuing after her retirement. We enjoyed lunches together, shopping(oh, how she loved to shop!) & sometimes just getting together or phone calls to chat. We loved exchanging gifts with eachother for our birthdays & Christmas. She will be missed. Rest easy, my friend! Sue.
Roger, Nancy and I send our heart felt condolences to you and your family. I cannot imagine the hurt and loss you all feel right now. Although most people if they could, would step in and stop the pain you feel. Unfortunately, this broken world, is filled with broken people who deal with their own pain and suffering each day and are incapable of doing what only God can do. Yet I think Janice would agree when I say, that is why Jesus came into this broken world, to bring comfort, peace, and healing to a hurting world.
This Sunday is especially significant in that it is the celebration of the sacrifice of our Savior to restore our relationship with God, the Father. What a monumental display of His love toward us in giving us His Son as a sacrifice on our behalf, for our trespasses against Him.. You and your family are blessed to have had A child of God, Janice, in your life. For the very few times I talked to Janice, I sensed her faith in God to be a genuine faith, positioning herself to follow after God. That alone is a great legacy for any Christian to have. We are praying that GOD will bring you and your family, the comfort, the peace and the healing that no one else can bring. God Bless you all.
