Dear Eugene, Craig-&-Debra, Mark-&-Susie, and Other Family and Friends:
I was saddened to learn of the death of Lois on May 15, 2015. It is sad to lose a loved one in death at any age, but hopefully at 92 years of age, it can be said of Lois what was said of Isaac at Genesis 25:39 "she died old and satisfied with days." Even though I did not know Lois personally, please accept my deepest sympathy in this second year of your loss.
I would like to share with you some verses from the Bible that bring continuing comfort, thoughts that others have shared with me when I lost loved ones.
First, it was never our Creator's purpose that anyone should die, ever! When He put Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, they had the prospect of endless life in ageless bodies, in perfect health, on a perfect Earth (Genesis 1:28). Adam and Eve could have passed that life on to us, but they sinned and lost everything for themselves ... and us. (Romans 5:12)
Next, it comforted me and softened my feelings toward Jehovah God to learn that it is Satan who causes aging, sicknesses like cancer, and death--not God (Hebrews 2:14). Long before He created humans, the Creator already had all the angels He wanted in heaven (Job 38:7).
Finally, the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ are our guarantees that this Earth will yet be a peaceful, global paradise and that Lois (and countless millions of others) will be resurrected to enjoy it! Remember Jesus' words at John 5:28-29a and John 11:25: "I am the resurrection and the life," and "all those in the memorial tombs ... will be resurrected." Until then Lois, Rest In Peace.
May you have comfort and peace from these promises until the day when you can be reunited with a young and healthy Lois. And, ... if you would ever like to know more about when and how our Creator Jehovah will bring about these wonderful blessings (or why He has allowed sickness, suffering and death since Adam and Eve sinned so long ago), please feel free to contact me at the address below.
With deepest sympathy and genuine respect,
Harolyne Grant

lois was such a huge part of my love for the lake and sailing. My mom made us wait until I turned 6, and then I jumped aboard the Devil. What a perfect name for a boat sailed by Lois, because she had a little in her, too! I thought she was so glamorous, sunning herself in the hill, but she was really all about the fun and all of those crazy swim caps. Just as she took me under her wing, she befriended my children as well, and encouraged them to be good swimmers and love the lake. What fond memories I have of Lois, my lake buddy. Godspeed as you swim off into the beautiful Owasco sunset!
