Dear Weakley Family,

My wife and I send our condolences for the loss of your family member. Losing a loved one is one of the hardest things we experience in life. I was sharing the same comfort I was given from the Bible. When Jesus was on Earth, he performed several resurrections. At John 5:29 he said, "Do not marvel at this, the hour is coming when all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out." Can you imagine how joyous that will be for us to welcome back our dear loved ones? Rev. 21:4 promises, "God will wipe out every tear from our eyes, and DEATH will be no more." I realize that no words can take away the pain you are no doubt feeling right now, but I hope you have found some comfort that can only be found in God's word the Bible.

Sincerely,
Drew and Emily Arras

What an awesome person Aunt Sissy was. She is my Great Aunt, and Great Great Aunt to my children. She had a huge heart. I will miss her very much. She is in heaven with her husband, parents, siblings, son and friends, that gives me peace knowing she is with loved ones. Love you Aunt Sissy.

Debbie

I only got to meet Ila when she was already into her nineties, however, we all know she was a swell, spunky lady. She spoke of her family ALL the time, and knew she was loved. You all should be so proud of that...

I will never forget her. Best Wishes, Traci

Her "old" nurse from Walker House & Heritage House
