Condolences & Tributes
Add A CondolenceTo the family of Mr. Trammell, may Jehovah strengthen you throughout this hard time. Tony will forever be missed. May his memories continue to live through each of you. We all long for a day when death will be done away with and we can live with a peace of mind and only cry tears of joy. I hope that you can find comfort in the scripture at Rev 21:4 which states "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away."
