I would like to send my condolences to your beautiful family. I admired Marti. At a time in my life nearly 27 years ago, she offered me wonderful friendship and an opportunity to succeed in the career I was seeking at that time. She was amusing and I loved her humor. She could also be quite stern with her opinions but I actually appreciated them. I know you will miss her, but she is one of a kind and will always be remembered. She will always live on... May the Holy Spirit bring you peace and comfort during this time. All my love.

I'm so sorry to hear of Phillis’ passing. Loosing a loved one is never easy. I lost my dad in 2010, and my mom in 2012. After my losses, reading Revelation 21:3,4 gave me real comfort. It says: And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away. I hope reading these verses also give you comfort during this difficult time. GW
