Memories Timeline

Guestbook

  1. I read of your loss and wanted to send a note of sympathy. As I read of Mr. Jones’s life and his love of life and values I can only imagine what a joy he was to be with, the best friend anyone could have. He will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him. I have shared with others two wonderful scriptures that give much comfort at times like these. 2 Cor. 1:3, 4 which speaks of “the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our tribulation.” and Isaiah 51:12 “I – I myself am the One that is comforting you people.” I believe we can treasure the wonderful memories and I know you have many, a loving father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend to many. Please know you are in the thoughts of many.
