My deepest condolences to the Family of Mrs. Kathleen LaPorte. May the 'God of all comfort' be with you during this difficult time. Wishing to share words of comfort from The Holy Scriptures. The book of Revelation or Apocalypse 21:4 reads: "He will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more. Neither will mourning, nor outcry nor pain be anymore". Yes, death will be no more. This is a promise from God and it will surely happen. No longer will we have to separate from our dear loved ones in death. If you would like to learn more about God's promises for the future, please visit: JW.org.
Sincerely,
Carol M

Your eyes always lit up a room. Your personality and soul are as beautiful as you are and will always be. God blessed so many with your presence. Not many can say they lived a life that truly impacted others in a big way...but you did. I know that when you entered heaven, God told you, "Good job my faithful servant" Oh how I am going to miss hearing your voice and sharing things with you. Thank you for all that you did while you were here. We will see each other again. Until then, relax after your long battle. There is no more pain. I will always love you xo

Kathy was like a big sister to me. She was my mentor in my first supervisory role in nursing and gave me the foundation that has brought me where I am today. She was kind, smart, living, and fun to be around. We have such good times over the years and I have too many fond memories to recount. I will be forever blessed and grateful for having called her my friend. I'll see you on the other side.

Death for you as a child of God, is to fall asleep in his arms and awake in the other world, alive forever beyond the power of pain, safe forever from all sickness and suffering.

My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. My deepest sympathy.
