My condolences to you all. I was Shirley’s neighbor next to her on Miller Street for many years. She was always a great person. I missed her after she moved out, I had no one to talk to about flowers and bushes.

Please accept my deepest condolences. The following words have helped many to cope with the loss of someone special. 1 Corinthians 1:3, 4 states “Praise be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our trials…”
Our Father, Jehovah God, will help your family and friends in such difficult times. In 1 Corinthians 15:26 he promises us that “the last enemy, death, will be brought to nothing.” I hope the family and friends can find some measure of comfort in this promise.
