I happened upon this notice and my heart goes out to the family of Carol Pellett. Though I do not know the family I want to convey my sympathy and share a thought from the bible that I look to at times such as this. Our heavenly Father Jehovan is a God of love and he hates to see us in pain. This thought is supported by Revelation 21:3,4, where it says, 'And he will wipe out every tear from thier eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore'. I personally cannot wait for that time. Also we can look forward to the fulfillment of John 5:28 where it promises that all those in the memorial tombs will come out. What a time of celebration when we will be crying tears of joy instead of sadness. I hope that you find comfort in these scriptures as I have when dealing with the loss of a loved one. I again am sorry for your loss. With sympathy, Jo Edwards
