So sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the words spoken at John 5:25, 28,29
Most truly I say to you, the hour is coming, and it is now, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who have paid attention will live.
"Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice, and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, and those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment".

I'm so sorry to hear of Chester’s passing. Loosing a loved one is never easy. I lost my dad in 2010, and my mom in 2012. After my losses, reading Revelation 21:3,4 gave me real comfort. It says: And 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. I hope reading these verses also give you comfort during this difficult time. GW

Ms Ruby, Becky, Kathy, James and family. My heart goes out to you at this time and I wish I knew something to say that would be of some comfort but I don't. I just pray that God will keep you in his arms and let you know how much he really cares.

So sad to hear of Chester’s passing. Such a friendly person. Always a smile and a wave. I will miss visiting with him at Sidro’s. Saw him my last time there. We had a good visit. RIP sweet man.

Sorry for the loss of your love one. May you find comfort in knowing that your dear one is safe in the memory of God, who will remember every detail about him and bring him back again. John 5:28, 29 gives this assurance.
