I remember Kiane as such a pretty girl, so I'm sure she turned into a beautiful lady. My heart aches for her family. I've also known Eddie for years, he was such a good person, so I'm sure they were blessed together. RIP
Thoughts And Prayers Are With You All During This Difficult Time And In The Days Ahead.
Kiane was a wonderful, caring teacher at the Agape House. She was loved by all who came into contact with her. She touched many lives with her encouraging words and testimony. We will miss her. Our prayers are with her family at this time.
Philip, Paula and the Craft family,
Jan and I are so sorry for your loss. You are in our prayers and thoughts.
David and Jan Morrison
To all the family of Kiane Craft. We are so sorry for your loss. May you receive the comfort and peace that only God can provide at this time.
We are so sorry to learn of Kiane and Eddie's passing. We were able to visit with her at Darrell's funeral and she seemed so happy. Please know that we are thinking about all of you today and praying for you.
There is too much to say about Kiane! She always had a sparkling smile on her face. She loved her family. She loved her friends. She loved Eddie. They were really good for each other. So it was fitting, if one had to leave, they do it together. Such a shock and tragedy. I will pray for you two handsome and intelligent young men that Kiane had to leave. Just remember that Mom had her heart right with God. I am thankful that Kiane was part of my life. We had some good times together. I can still hear her laughter in my mind. She did that a lot! Bless both families. This is such a sad, sad time.
All the family is in my thoughts and prayers. I remember Kiane as a beautiful little girl growing up down the road from me and my family. I have no doubt she grew into a beautiful loving woman. God bless and keep all her family during this time of sorrow.
The past 3 years or so has been enriched due to my renewed frendship with Kiane. We all are going to miss her greatly. Hard to put into words the loss that I feel.
My sympathy is extedned to the family & friends at this time:
(John 11:25) Jesus said to her: “I am the resurrection and the life. He that exercises faith in me, even though he dies, will come to life;
(Revelation 21:4-5) 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.” 5 And the One seated on the throne said: “Look! I am making all things new.” Also, he says: “Write, because these words are faithful and true.”
With sympathy,
D.R .Miler
THERE IS NOT ENOUGH ROOM IN MY HEART FOR ALL THE EMOTION THAT I FEEL. I CAN SAY THAT, I KNOW KIANE LOVED MY UNCLE EDDIE COMBS AND THE LIFE THEY LIVED. SHE OFTEN TOLD ME, HOW WONDERFUL IT WAS TO BE WITH A MAN THAT TREATED HER WITH SUCH A PROFOUND RESPECT. WE HAD JUST GOT BACK FROM VISITING THEM BOTH LAST WEEK. I AM GREATLY HONOURED THAT SHE CHOOSE MY UNCLE ED, OVER THE COWBOY IN THE HAT SHE WAS DANCING WITH THAT NIGHT, BEFORE HE GOT OUT THE DOOR OF THE GOLDSTAR, WHERE THEY MET. RESPECT IS ALWAYS GIVEN, IT IS NEVER EARNED! ONE LEARNS THIS WHEN YOU MEET A REAL MAN. I KNOW MARISSA KIANE CRAFT, NEVER ONCE REGRETED BEING WITH MY UNCLE ED. I WILL GREATLY MISS HER LAUGHTER AND HER LOVING HUGS. ALL MY LOVE, MICHAEL VON BRUCE BROYLES
