    Dear,Howell family,

    Having recently learned of the loss of your loved one I extend my deepest sympathy to you. During this difficult time I wanted to share the hope found in the Bible, the hope of the resurrection. Jesus stated at John 5:28,29 ‘The hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his [Jesus] voice and come out.’ And at Revelation 21:3,4 it states that there will be a time when ‘death will be no more.’ These scriptures give us hope for the future as respects to our dead loved ones. Those scriptures have brought comfort to me and my family and I hope it does the same for your family.
    Sorry for your loss.

    My heartfelt sympathy goes out to the loved ones left behind. Madeline had a wonderful sense of humor and brought a lot of laughter to a lot of people. She will be truly missed. Remember she is never very far away, you just have to listen to hear her. I didn’t know her well but she always made me laugh and I will always remember her.

    So very sorry for the families. It is a hard thing to go through. I lost my dad in February. May you all find peace and comfort. Hold on to the memories and all the cards played and jokes told and her laugh.

    Gina, Ann Marie, Kathy, Rhonda and Lisa- my ccondolences, love and prayers to all of you at this difficult time… Growing up, your family has always been part of our lives…Your mom was such a loving, caring person who was always quick with a joke to make you smile… (oh and the laugh! I will forever remember her fabulous laugh!) . She would come to the house after Bingo, sit in the kitchen visiting, and would cut up with my mom like they were both still a couple of twenty-something year olds. Her friendship with my mom definitely stood the test of time…..
    Your mom was loved by so many people…me, my sisters and parents are just a few…but I know our lives were richer for having known her, and we all feel the loss.
