I have known the Turpin family and its members for many years now and they are a loving group. It is a a true loss to those who knew any of them and how they feel about each other.

It is a real comfort to have God's word the holy bible for us to read as it bring great comfort to those who seek it out. 2 Corinthians 1:3-7 The hope that our creator holds out for us is to live again under perfect conditions without death at all. Isaiah 25:8

Please accept my deepest feelings over the loss of Mrs. Turpin
