I am very sorry for your loss, please accept my sincere condolences at this time. Something that I have found comfort from is stated in the bible at John 5:28,29 where we see that there's going to be a resurrection of those who have fallen asleep in death. Losing someone is never easy but I hope that you find comfort from the scriptures and the promises that God holds out for us and our dead loved ones.

My sincere condolences to the Phillips family. I had the pleasure of working with Phyllis in Lorain Schools. She was always very warm and caring, while often sharing the products of her gift of cooking. She was great fun to work with. I pray that you will find comfort in sharing your favorite memories with each other. Sincerely, Jeanne Burch
