Dear Louise, Kim-&-Steve, Kevin-&-Shannon, Family and Friends of Robert:
I was saddened to learn of the death of Robert on December 10 2016. Please accept my deepest sympathy at you loss. It is sad to lose a loved one in death at any age, but hopefully at 70 years of age, it can be said of Robert what was said of Isaac at Genesis 25:39 "he died old and satisfied with days."
May I share some verses from the Bible that bring continuing comfort even as the months and years pass since when we suffered loss?
First, it was never our Creator's purpose that anyone should die, ever! When He put Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, they had the prospect of endless life, in ageless bodies, in perfect health, on a perfect Earth (Genesis 1:28). Adam and Eve could have passed that life on to us, but they sinned and lost everything for themselves ... and us. (Romans 5:12)
Next, it comforted me and softened my feelings toward Jehovah God to learn that it is Satan who causes aging, sicknesses like cancer, and death--not God (Hebrews 2:14).
Finally, the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ are our guarantees that this Earth will yet be a peaceful, global paradise and that Robert (and countless millions including L.A.-&-Louise, Kenneth and Brian) will be resurrected to enjoy it! Remember Jesus' words at John 5:28-29a and John 11:25: "I am the resurrection and the life," and "all those in the memorial tombs ... will be resurrected." Until then Robert, Rest In Peace.
May you have comfort and peace from these promises until the day when you can be reunited with a young (Job 33:25) and healthy (Isaiah 33:24) Robert.
With deepest sympathy and genuine respect,
Harolyne Grant

So sorry for your loss. During this difficult time, find comfort in God's thrilling promise found at Revelation 21: 3, 4 to soon wipe out every tear from our eyes, for death to be no more , and no more pain these things will be done away. Knowing this promise I hope wiil give you the strength to endure.

Mrs. Louise,
I pray for you during this difficult time as well as for the repose of Robert's soul. He was on my ACTS retreat as a leader and I also have very joyful memories of him during our time together at the St. Rose Men's Club. He gave so much time and talent to the community of St. Rose and will be noticeably missed.
Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May the souls of the faithfully departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

Louise,
We were saddened to learn of Robert's death. We enjoyed knowing him for the short time after travelling together on the two trips we took with St. Rose, and then running in to y'all at Kroger now and then. May God be with you and your family during this time and comfort you, and give you strength and guidance for the difficult times ahead. May the love of friends and family lift your spirits as God welcomes Robert "home" to eternal happiness.
Love, Ben & Shirley Camarata

Condolences to the Bratton family. Our thoughts and prayers go out to your whole family. Psalms 147:3 says God, "heals the broken hearted, and binds up their wounds." May God bring you comfort and peace.

My heartfelt sympathy goes out to you and your family with the death of your Dad. I'll keep you in my prayers this Christmas and know that God had plans for your Dad just as He has plans for each of us.
I pray that God will wrap you tightly all on His loving arms to remind you of His presence in our lives each day!
