Hello,
My Name Is Tashea. I Did Not Know Mrs. Jones Personally But I Know How Hard It Can Be To Lose A Loved One In Death. I Have Experienced The Pain That Comes From Losing Someone Close To Me So My Heart Moves Me To Share With Others What Has Helped Me To Cope At Such A Difficult Time.
I First Want To Say That I Am Very Sorry For Your Loss. I Do Not Know If You Are A Bible Reader Or Not And I Hope I Do Not Offend Anyone, But The Scripture That Has Given Me Comfort Is The One Found At 2 Corinthians 1: 3, 4. It Says, “Praised Be The God And Father Of Our Lord Jesus Christ, The Father Of Tender Mercies And The God Of All Comfort Who Comforts Us In All Our Trials So That We May Be Able To Comfort Others In Any Sort Of Trial With The Comfort That We Receive From God.” I Would Like To Share With You The Comfort I Have Received From God. He Promises At John 5: 28, 29 That “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, And Those Who Practiced Vile Things To A Resurrection Of Judgment.” So God Has Promised That In The Very Near Future We Will Not Only Welcome Back To Life Our Loved Ones We Have Lost, But We Will Also Never Have To Experience The Pain Associated With Death Ever Again. I Pray That This Gives The Family Some Comfort During This Difficult Time. If You Need Anything Or Would Like To Know More About What The Bible Says About The Future, Feel Free To Contact Me. Have A Great Day.

My Condolences To The Family Of Norma Jean Jones. The Death Of A Loved One Can Be Extremely Difficult To Cope With. Many Find Comfort In The Many Promises Found In The Bible. Acts 24:15 Has Special Meaning For Many, For There It Speaks About The Resurrection. Our Loving Creator Jehovah (Psalms 83:18) Will Restore Life To Those Sleeping In Death As Promise (Titus 1:2). Please Embrace This Beautiful Promise Of God During This Difficult Time. You Can Read These Scriptures Online At Www.Jw.Org

Sharon, I’m Kathy Hedrick Rueter, your cousin. my mother was Christine Jones. I’m so sorry to read of Norma’s passing and hope the years have helped to ease the pain of loss. I don’t know if you will get this or not, but just in case…You May remember I had 3 brothers and a sister Charles, Donnie, David and Mary Frances. “Susie”. My dad, John C. Hedrick, passed in 1989, mother in 2008,, my husband, Terry Rueter of MI, in 2007. David, professor of music at Campbellsville University in Campbellsville KY, passed away Aug., 2019 (stroke and cancer, but a fall in the nursing home caused his death). After this, my oldest brother Charles passed in March of 2020. My sister and I are hanging in there, just like 2 little ol ladies should. I’ll be 73 in March, and Susie is 75. Brother Donnie suffers from severe heart problems, but has fought the fight for many years and is still living with his wife Joan, and their daughter Sallyanne. Gloom and doom, but one day we will all meet on the shores of that bright Home and what a reunion that will be. Prayers for happiness, joy and peace to you and yours.
