Condolences & Tributes
Add A CondolenceMy Condolences to the Family, Please know that our GOD of Comfort is with you all. Please read REVELATION 21:3,4
To the Family: In the days, weeks, months ahead may you be comforted by the memories of the good times you shared together and the promises found at Isaiah 26:19 and John 11:23, 24. Our condolences to you all.
Sorry about your loss. Death saddens us because we want those we love to live and be with family. Death was not part of Jehovah purpose in the beginning. He wants us to live and be with family forever. [John 3 :16] Why do good people die? The bible answers that question . Read (Romans 5:12) However death will not be around forever. Read : (Revelation 21:4) For those who have died already like Mr. Campbell . The bible shows that Jesus will bring back those who have died. [John :2:28-29] Reuniting them with family and friends right here on Earth. That will be a happy time. May what the bible teaches bring some comfort to the family in these challenging times
Will Miss “Officer Campbell “ beautiful smile. Always cherish the memories. He’s at rest.

To the Campbell family: Please accept my sincere condolences. May you find comfort in the wonderful hope God gives us for the near future. He promises a time when he will wipe out every tear from our eyes and death will be no more (Revelation 21:3,4; Isaiah 25:8).

My sincere condolences at this time of loss. Please draw comfort from the scriptural promises at Acts 24:15 and John 5:28, 29, knowing that God cannot lie (Isaiah 46:10, 11).
In these times no words can comfort you and your family, but I know that God can and He will take care of you. Psalm 23:4 “Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.”
