Condolences

Condolence From: Holly Nokes
Condolence: My deepest sincere condolences to all of the family. I do not know where to begin except to say that she helped in a way that made a huge difference in my life during 1988 to 1991. I was married to some one back then who lost his jobs many times. Every time we had to move to different states all over the U.S. for his new jobs. My desire was to complete my assoc degree at Brookhaven College. I wrote to her from Charlotte, NC. This was before the internet & online degree programs. So if you were not a resident for a year, the cost of tuition was more. I wrote & asked her if she would allow me to complete my 2 yr degree by continuing to take the course requirements of Brookhaven College even though the credits would come from out of state community colleges. She said yes & I was grateful ever since. I wanted to send her a thank you note, but learned it was too late now. Even at age 65 I am forever grateful to her, that she cared & she made it possible for me to get my degree in 1991 without having to start all over in NC, KY, VA, TX, MO, ILL, FL. He lost his jobs every 1 year to 18 months because of alcoholism (he passed in 2012). So it was impossible for me to establish residency & then begin a semester every where we lived. What a beautiful, caring, caring person she was. I am sad I cannot send her a thank you letter. God bless her family.

Condolence From: Daniela
Condolence: My condolences to the Calkins family during this difficult time. In the Bible, Jehovah God gives us hope. Acts 24:15 says, “there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous.” Revelation 21:4 says, “and he will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more.” Very soon we will see the fulfillment of these promises here on Earth. We hope you find comfort in God’s promises.
