My favorite teacher of all time. It’s been over 25 years since I last seen or spoke to her, but I remember her as a kind and wonderful person. Rest In Peace Mrs. VanHook.

I feel like Billie Jean was part of my family as Pat and I talked at length about our sisters. I am so sorry about this huge loss for all of you. Love to all.

I am so sorry to hear of your great loss. Recently I lost my dear mother,
and found great comfort in the Holy Bible, like at Isaiah 25 verse 8 -
" The Sovereign Lord will swallow up death forever, and wipe away
the tears from all faces." Also at Revelation 21 verse 4, we find God's
promise to remove both pain and death. For more comfort, I turn to
the website at: www.jw.org (Search: Comfort)
