I’m so sorry for your recent loss. My deepest condolences to your family. Death of a loved one is never easy to endure, but you don’t have to go through it alone. Continue looking to God and you will always find comfort in him (2 Cor 1:3,4). He will soon destroy the enemy of death (1 Cor 15:26), and He will soon return our loved ones to us through the resurrection (John 5:28,29). Please visit JW.org and search “When Someone You Love Dies”, it helped me through some difficult times and I hope you can find comfort in it also.
May your memories give you peace and comfort. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Charlotte, Linda, Kimi, Richie, Amber and Lil Ryker
The Keegstra family send our love to your family. We have such fond memories of a special man who loved the outdoors and fishing. Ed and Rodger will be fishing together again in paradise.
I pray for Joel and his family in this time of sorrow. Thinking of you and wishing you peace and comfort as you honor your father’s life.
My heart is with you and your family.
Sincerely, Tommy Knowles

Lois, I know your family realizes how fortunate they were to have such a wonderful person in their lives. I know he will be missed every day. I’m thinking of you.
Sorry to hear that Rodger passed away. I have many memories
of our years together in High School, playing football and double dating. You may not remember but I introduced you to
Rodger on your first date. 66 years and a nice large family to help you get through the sadness of your loss.
Glad we got to see Rodger and you on your last trip to Kalamazoo.
Sincerely, Nick & Elsie Carson
