My condolences to the family of Mrs Colbert. May you find comfort in the words of our Lord Jesus in John 5:28, 29, “Do not be amazed at this for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out……to a resurrection of life.” May the love of family and friends help carry you through your grief.

Douglas and Debbie,
Norma was a very sweet and wonderful person. I loved her very much and am sorry to learn of her loss. May God enfold you all in his arms and comfort you. He has been a great comfort to me in the loss of my mother. She will always be with you through your memories of her.
