My husband and I would like to express our sincere sympathy to the family and friends of your beloved Agnes. We wanted to share with you comfort from God’s Word, found in John 5:28,29. Here we are given the wonderful hope of the ressurection of our dear loved ones. The God of comfort also reassures us that he is near to those broken at heart, and to those crushed in spirit he saves. (Psalm 34:18) May you too, have comfort in the loving memories you all made and shared together, cherish them in your hearts always, and her memory will live on in each and every one of you, who knew and loved her. Take care of yourselves and each other, during this very difficult time.

I was so sorry to read of Mrs. Aagaard’s passing. I was fortunate to have been a former neighbor to her and her husband when they lived on Henderson Street in Phillipsburg. It was always a pleasure to talk with them as they were such wonderful people. Please accept my sincerest condolences to your family.
