I know the Koelbel family and friends have saddened hearts because of losing John recently in death. When our loved ones fall asleep in death, the pain and grief seems unbearable. So I want to share this beautiful scripture where our heavenly father, Jehovah, (Psalm 83:18) promises us that he is going to do away with man's greatest enemy, death. Rev. 21: 4; "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." When our loved ones fall asleep in death, the pain and grief seems unbearable. Our loving God Jehovah understands how we feel and he comforts us by means of his word the Bible. ." Jehovah invites you to throw all your burdens on him and he will sustain you in your time of grief. (Psalm 34:18) The Bible also enlightens us at Hebrews 2:14 "so that through his (Jesus) death, he (Jesus) might bring to nothing the one having the means to cause death, that is, the Devil." For more comforting scriptures please visit: http://bit.ly/1K38EFt It has provided me with many more scriptures that have given me comfort, strengthened my faith and helped me find the answer to Why? I know it will do the same for you. God's kingdom that Jesus taught us to pray for at Matt. 6: 9, 10 will bring about these wonderful promises including the resurrection. (John 5: 28, John 6:40, John 11:23-25) Isaiah 26:19 "Your dead will live......And the earth will let those powerless in death come to life." Isaiah 25:8 "He will swallow up death forever. For Jehovah himself has spoken it." It is my prayer these scriptures will give you comfort in your grief. Again, I offer my sincere condolences to the family.

From being the Uncle who took me to the Inner Harbor to ride the paddle boats to becoming the mentor and teacher I grew to know we share a lot of memories which I now carry forward and embody as part of my life to instill in the lives of those I interact with passing lessons along like roots spreading out in all the land.

Well my friend, another chapter done. I am glad that you finally have peace. It was heartbreaking and sad to visit you the last few years. I will remember the happy times we all spent together. The great council and advice you offered me and my John. I forgive you for the uncontrolled landing in the T6 with my husband riding shotgun; and for the good laugh we had at one Easter dinner! You were a character for sure. Behave in heaven! KEEP THE SHINY SIDE UP - KEEP THE DIRTY SIDE DOWN.
Carol you did a wonderful job as his Florence Nightingale. I know I would never had had the strength to do all that you did for John. God Bless You!. Love, your friend Tina-Marie
