    My sincere condolences to the family of Virginia ( as I knew her at HHS ). She was a very friendly girl with an out going personality and I remember her well from high school. I am sorry we have lost another classmate.

    Ruthie is our forever friend, soon to be resurrected. John 5:28,29. With eternity in our hearts, we know Christ’s heavenly Kingdom government will soon restore the earth to the original conditions intended. Isaiah 9:6,7 A life well lived with a lovely family and friends awaiting Ruthie’s return to paradise will be well rewarded. Isaiah 26:19 assures us of the joyous time when she shakes off the dust , and continues, not missing a beat , for a beautiful eternal life. Lazarus was greeted by tears of joy when Jesus said: COME OUT! And he did , to his family and friends. May we be there to greet Ruthie. JW.org “Enjoy Life Forever” Warm Christian Love and Prayers.
