Mrs ss wrote a sympathy message

“I'm so very sorry for your loss. There are no words that I can say to lessen the grief at this time. This will be the hardest thing as a parent that you will have to do in your lifetime. I made Grant pies for his birthdays, I would always ask what kind this year and his response would be he didn't care they were all good. I worked with Grant at Plymouth and he would always be there to help me in anyway that he could. Always with a smile on his face. My heart goes out to you at this time. Janet L.”

Daniel Mora wrote a sympathy message

“I’m so sorry for your loss. I know this pain is difficult to deal with. One of the clearest teachings of God’s Word is that dead loved ones will return to life. (John 5: 28,29) During this difficult time, a strong hope in God’s promises will help you to endure. And through endurance, you will experience that grand future in which Jehovah will “give you the requests of your heart.” He will satisfy “the desire of every living thing.” (Psalm 37:4) Things will get better soon.”
