, MO Friday, July 15, 2016 Dear Cooper Family: Please accept my sincere condolences for the loss of Delilah. It breaks our hearts when death separates us from the ones we love so much. The Bible assures us that God sees our pain and grief and has promised to "swallow up death forever."(Isaiah 25:8) He will heal our broken hearts by resurrecting our precious loved ones to life again.(Acts 24:15) Until then, I hope the memories of Delilah and these promises from God comfort you in the days to comenCaren Lillie
Fremont, NE Thursday, July 14, 2016 Dave and family.... I share in your loss of Delilah as a friend. She was such a caring person her family was her delight, and her caring for others was so evident as she spoke of going to take one of her friends to lunch or just hang out with them in their room..... Her quickness to smile and visit with others was such a blessing to many... You are in my thoughts and prayers as you go through this difficult time. Gods love will be so comforting at this time.
