Dear Johnson family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Enid seemed like a lovely person, who was very creative and loved my many she will be missed. I hope the scripture at John 5:28,29 brings you some comfort. That scripture mentions “the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life”. This Biblical hope can really bring us comfort in this time of the end, the thought of seeing our loved ones again and never having to lose a loved one again is truly encouraging. I hope this thought helps.
