Amy, it’s hard to believe it’s been 2 years already since you lost John, but, at the same time, hard to believe it’s only been 2 years. Your life has probably changed in ways you never imagined. Thinking about you and family. Deb Cassaday

To the Felger Family,

You have my condolences for your loss. The death of a loved can be hard to deal with. I hope these words at 1 Peter 5:6,7 may bring some comfort. "Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God, so the he may exalt you in due time, while you throw all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you."

September 25, 2018

I would like to offer my sincere condolences to John's family, sorry for your loss. Jeremiah 29:11, 12 assures us that God is thinking thoughts of peace towards us, to give us a future and a hope, and that if we come and pray to Him, He will listen to us. May that bring you comfort in this time of sorrow.
