GUEST BOOK

Please accept my sincere condolences for the passing of Phil. To lose one who is still so young is heartbreaking. I know that we all look forward to the time as 1 Corinthians 15:26 states, "And the last enemy, death, is to be brought to nothing."

Our hearts and prayers are with you and sad to lose you after finding you.

My husband and I would like to express our deepest condolences for your loss, it's never easy going through the passing of a loved one. You might take comfort in God's promise at Revelation 21:4, whI changed says "He will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away." This scripture brought us peace when we experienced loss, we hope it does the same for you. May you find strength during this time

My condolences to the Celland family for the loss of your dear loved one. During this most difficult time, may your hearts be comforted by Jehovah God's promise to swallow up death forever, and to wipe away the tears from all faces(Isaiah 25:8). Also during the days to come, may Mr. Celland's sweet memories fill your hearts with joy and peace.
