Loretta Womack

To the Cox Jr. Family, I am sorry for your loss. I send my condolences to you and yours. The Bible makes it clear that God did not originally intend for humans to die. How would you feel if you knew that a reunion with your loved ones was possible right here on earth under the best of conditions? Well, the Bible makes the promise: :Your dead ones will live.. They will rise up." And the Bible also says: "The righteous themselves will possess the earth, and they will reside forever upon it." Isaiah 26:19; Psalm 37:29. Jesus Christ himself said: "Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out." John 5:28&29; and also Acts 24:15 says: "That there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous." May Jehovah God and Jesus Christ be with you and your Family?

Our thoughts and prayers are with you this week as we mourn Warren's passing. I'm sure I can speak for not only my family but the Cub Scout Pack 352 family when I say that we will keenly feel his loss. Warren was a great father and was always there to lend his help, wisdom and advice to the Pack. Sincerely, Mark, Tammy, Kyle, Jeremy and Ryan Yalch

I would like to offer my prayers to the Cox family; my sister died of cancer at the same age and I miss her terribly. But I found comfort in a scripture I read and hope you do too. Isaiah 25:8. I pray it brings you peace.
