I am extending my heartfelt sympathy for the passing of Mr Raymond.Jesus said: “I am the resurrection and the life those who exercise faith in me even though he dies will come back to life.John 11:25
To the Allen family. My heart is with you and your family at this time of your loss. There is comfort in knowing God’s promises about the resurrection hope. (Acts 24:15) and (John 5:28,29) In the past God has resurrected humans and He is eager to do it again because He hates death. (Mark 5:41-43) It is not God’s purpose originally for mankind to grow old, get sick and die. To learn more about God’s promises go to JW.ORG. There are online Bible study lessons featured and more.

Momma will always love you son. I know how you felt about me, our relationship was amazing, one I cherished and love.
