May your loved one rest peacefully, soon, no resident will say: I am sick, and the last enemy, death, is to be brought to nothing. (Isaiah 33:24; 1 Corinthians 15:26) Please feel welcome to visit our website for more encouraging Bible answers, (jw.org). Please accept my deepest condolences.

My dear family, how I wish I could be with you during this time. But the timing and my responsibilities will not allow it at this time. My wife Diane and daughter Rachael will represent our family.I feel sadness and a sense of loss as I am sure many of you do. But my hope and yours should be too that we will see Aunt Terry again one day in heaven. First Thessalonians 4:13-18 says, "13 But we do not want you to be uninformed, brethren, about those who are asleep, so that you will not grieve as do the rest who have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus. 15 For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep. 16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord. 18 Therefore comfort one another with these words."I have been praying all week for God's peace to be with you and that he will fill sense of loss with his love and presence.My love to you all Uncle Bill, Cousins Billy, Randy Katie and Shannon.

Dear Family and Sisters of Terry,Sincere condolences to all of you on the loss of your beautiful Mom, Wife, Grandma and Sister. As a cousin of Terry's, I knew her only briefly in childhood, from visits our family made to Kenosha every few years from our home in Pakistan. I remember Terry as a vivacious, fun-loving person who had so much to give.We (the four Roub cousins) were deeply saddened by the news of Terry's passing; we are praying much for you, your sons and their families, Bill, and for Terry's sisters, Lynn and Jill, during this difficult time. May God comfort you and give you hope, and may the legacy that Terry has left in each of you remind you daily that you are loved and cherished.Sincerely, Elaine Roub
