Jane and family:
You have always been good to me and I appreciate it. It hurts me too when someone I like suffers, as I know you are now. We have felt the loss of someone very close to us also and are reminded of that feeling every time we know of someone else who has experienced this. Most everyone goes through this somtime during their life, but I know that is of little consolation now. Cherish and love Marivn and your family always and may God be with you.

Thoughts & prayers go out to the family. I was lucky enough to meet him and can honestly say he was one of the nicest people I’ve known. He always seemed to be in a good mood and enjoying the company of those around him. This world can use a lot more people like him. He certainly will be missed.
Dear family of Marvin Kemper: Please accept my sincere condolences and deepest sympathy on the loss of you’re dear loved one. Death is such a tragedy for all of us, and when it touches us personally, it’s sometimes difficult to find the comfort that we search for. Our loving Heavenly Father Jehovah, who is the God of all comfort, feels empathy for those who have felt the sting of death, and therefore promises to swallow up death forever and eliminate all pain and suffering. (Please read Revelation 21:4 and Isaiah 25:8) Jesus gave even more reason for hope at John 5:28,29 where he explains: “…all those in the memorial tombs…will come out…” As you read the above texts in you’re Bible, may they give you hope and comfort, during this most difficult time. Again, my deepest sympathy. David Cowles
