I am so sorry to have read of your loss. Please accept my sincere condolences. The Bible is a great source of encouragement at times like this. Something that I have personally found to be of great comfort is what the Bible says at John 5:28, 29 ( 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.) As well as Revelation 21:3,4 (With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. 4 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.) These verses show us that soon God is going to bring about a resurrection of our loved ones as well as do away with all causes we have for suffering including sickness and death. Knowing this has always comforted me and it is my sincere hope that these thoughts comfort your family as well. Again I am so sorry for your loss and May Jehovah God bring you comfort during these difficult times.

We would like to express our deepest sympathy to Peggy's family, and her FABT family! We both bank at FABT and it was always a joy to chat with her! We will miss her southern accent :) wishing us a good day, and chats about her family or a terrible day we were having. She was such a sweetheart, kind, and thoughtful person! It is not going to be the same banking experience without her there. She was so excited about her new grandbaby coming. Family was everything to her! God Bless you all, and may you find comfort knowing that she is with our Lord.

Although I only had the priviledge of knowing her a short time, I could tell instantaneously that she was a woman full of wisdom, love, and laughter. I am deeply saddened by this news but can tell you that she had something many can only fathom. She had a family that loved her deeply and it was easy to tell that she loved them just as much. I am praying for you all during this difficult time. It was honor being able to serve you all.
