Condolence: I am sorry for your loss please accept my sincere condolences. I hope you will find your strength and comfort in Jesus promises of the earthly resurrection(:Acts 24:15) and the renewed Paradise earth, where death will be no more and no family will have to mourn the death of a loved ever again. Revelation 21:3,4; Luke 23:43. May GOD(Psalms 83:18) grant you peace and comfort now during this grievous time.-Matthew 5:4.

Condolence From: Ginny Hucks
Condolence: It was with great sadness that I read about the passing of Elizabeth. After her retiirement she would come to College Park Elementary to volunteer in my first grade classroom. She did this for many years and helped many many children advance with their reading skills as well as develop a love of reading.
Sterling would drop her off at the school in the morning and when the children knew she was coming they would all be anxious to read to her. Elizabeth listened to the stories and carried on a conversation with each child after the book was read. Many of these children did not have an adult at home who was available to listen to them! On holidays Elizabeth always arrived with a little treat for the readers. As her eyesight declined Elizabeth would comment that she couldn't see the words in the books but she had heard the stories so many times that she had memorized them!
What a wonderful lady! Her love and compassion will be missed!

Condolence From: Linda Rae Briggs Phelps
Condolence: Dear Pebble, I am so sorry for your loss. I know you will miss her. I want to share a little about her and my life. I used to visit her with my parents (Linwood and Rae) when we all lived in Broad Creek Village. We moved to South Norfolk. I remember Dad and Kinky and some of the other men who came to our home to play cards on Saturday nights and the women sat in the living room - did crafts and talked. I always remembered her smile. This is meant for Joann and her family who I really don't remember but just know she is with our Lord now and no more suffering. My heartfelt sympathy to all of you. May God give you comfort in your memories of someone special. Linda Rae
