I cannot imagine what you are going through at this time from the great loss. I offer my sympathy to you on this grievous occasion. Norma will be missed greatly. 1 Corinthians 15:26 is one of my favorite scriptures and I hope it gives you the same comfort and hope that I get from it. Again, sorry for your loss and you receive strength from God during this time.
Family and friends of Mrs. Simpson; may you have the peace of The Comforter (1 Corinthians 1:3) to carry you through your grief; as well as the comfort of good memories as you celebrate the life of Norma Ray. I am sorry for your loss.
