Take comfort in these words...
"The Empty Chair'
When God sees fit to take someone so very close and dear
I know that he is with you through your worries and your fear.
He doesnt take them forever though it may seem that way to you
you had them longer than he did so now he needs them to.
You will soon be with them someday up in Heaven above
and you will live forever in an everlasting love.
We never want out loved ones to suffer not one day, He removes
all pain from their bodies when they go with Him to stay.
He doesn't mean to make you sad or break your heart in two
for you are His child dear one, and Jesus does love you.
So now there is an empty chair no one can fill that space
but your loved one is sitting there though you can't see their face.
There is no way that's easy when it's time to say good-bye...
Give them your love before they go,
They Live They Do Not Die!
May God Bless You Kim and Matt and keep you in His Tender care.
Sorry about your loss of Julia
I was so sorry to hear about Julia. I attended the Church in Pomery where Charles Thompson was the pastor and knew Julia and her sisters and brothers as my mother was the Sunday School Teacher there. My thoughts are with all of you and your families. It is very hard to lose a loved one this time of year. My mom was buried on Christmas Eve and I can feel your pain. Take care and God bless.

I was so sorry to hear of Ann's passing. We grew up in Pomeroy and were childhood friends. We went to the same school and the same church. The last time I saw Ann, she was still working at the Midway. She always had a smile on her face and a kind word for everyone. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.
God Bless
