Sincere condolences to the family. I am so very sorry for your loss. May God provide the necessary peace and comfort to your family and friends during this difficult time. Please remember these words of encouragement from the Bible: “Jesus plainly told her: I am the resurrection and the life. He that exercises faith in me, even though he dies, will come to life.” —John 11:20-25.
To the family and friends. May the love and comfort of the Holy Spirit, Yahshua the Messiah strengthen you and give you peace. Tom believed in life after death through the resurrection of Yahshua. One of his favorite scriptures was the entire 15th chapter of 1st Corinthians, especially the last two verses . . . “But thanks be to Yahweh, which giveth us the victory through our Saviour Yahshua the Messiah. Therefore my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of Yahweh, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in Yahweh.”
My condolences to the family of Tom. He knew my older cousins from Gary and then when he moved to Texas we become members of the IDMR. He will be missed.
We would like to send our condolences to the family. Tommy was my Godfather and he will truly be missed. My parents Clifton & Mildred White and I will keep you all in our prayers. May God comfort you during this time as only He can!
