I am so sorry to hear of Kathy's passing. I remember meeting her and Margaret when they were very very little. I remember Lucille talking about the girls with just as much love as she did her own children. Jimmy always thought so much of the "Sapp" family. You will be in our thoughts.

I am so sorry to hear about Kathy's passing. Memories of her attending her last class reunion and me dancing with her in the wheelchair is a happy memory and knowing the sweet person she was in school. May the Lord hold the family in HIS loving arms and comfort you at this time. Matthew 5:4 For those who mourn will be comforted.

The passing of your loved one Katherine is one of the most devastating experiences your family can face, and at times, the loss may seem unbearable. However, finding ways to express my deepest sympathies to your family is most difficult. Furthermore, your faith in the Bible based resurrection hope for Katherine, Jesus spoke about at John 11:25. These words of Jesus are comforting to your family knowing that Katherine have a hope in a resurrection. Moreover, the help that God supplies does make a difference, because God can help you to cope with the death of someone you love. The Bible makes this comforting promise: ‚Äö?Ñ??Jehovah is near to those that are broken at heart; and those who are crushed in spirit he saves (Psalms 34:18). True, divine help does not eliminate the pain, but it can make it easier to bear. That does not mean that you will no longer cry or will forget your loved one. So, draw close to Jehovah, the God of all comfort during this time of sorrow and sadness.
