I met Jake in High School and later worked with him at the mill. I remember his as quiet, friendly, kind and the best “dry” sense of humor you could find. I remember lunches where he sat quietly, you weren’t even sure he was listening, then he would pull something out of the clear blue that cracked you up. I wish that I would have known him in later life. So sorry for your loss.
To the Family and Friends of Joaquin LeFebre:
Please allow me to express my condolences for the loss of your dear loved one. The pain and sorrow experienced during this difficult time can be overwhelming. However, I am often comforted by the words found in God’s word, the Bible. For instance, when grieving the loss of his dear friend Lazarus, the Bible reports that “Jesus gave way to tears.” (John 11:35). What is even more comforting is the fact that Jesus resurrected Lazarus from the dead, and so like Mary and Martha, Lazarus’ sisters, the Bible expresses the hope of the resurrection whereby we may see our loved ones again. (Read John 11:38-44; 5:28, 29). What a marvelous hope.
May Jehovah God grant you peace during this time and provide comfort for you and your loved ones.
Sincerely,
Jeanine Williams
