To the Family of Mrs. Mandeville, I was so sorry to read of the death of Mrs. Mandeville. Not too long ago I had a nice visit with her at the home. She was one of my favorite teachers. I'll never forget her bubbly personality, leading us in song with her pitch-pipe. Her brother Charles and his family were friends with my family. We share the same faith. When my we've lost people we love, my family and I receive comfort from the Bible, as I'm sure you do too. It's not surprising that death is called our "enemy". Even Jesus was moved to tears when Lazerus died.John 5:28,29 promises that the dead will live again. The Bible's promise is that we will see our dead loved ones again on a paradise earth. Good news for us all. Always remember that God cares for us. The Bible assures us:"The Lord is near to the broken hearted, and saves the crushed in spirit" Psalms 34:18 Sincerely, Mary Tillson Pimpinella
