  68. Rev. Robert & Amy Seaboyer

    Even though Geraldine and I are related, we only met several years ago when my husband Bob & I attended a service at the Liverpool church. She was such a delightful lady and I was sorry we hadn’t met years ago. For Geraldine, her death was simply a step from time into eternity and the Presence of Jesus, the One she loved and served so faithfully. She ran life’s race well and has heard those words, “Well done thou good and faithful servant, enter into the joy of your Lord.” Her faith has given way to sight and she has laid aside the limitations of her earthly body and is more alive then she has ever been. We pray that her family may know the peace and comfort of the Holy Spirit, the sweet Presence of Jesus, the love of family and friends and many precious memories of one who was dearly loved. We have a wonderful hope in Jesus. One day we shall meet our loved ones around the ‘Throne of God’ and together we will worship the One who loved us and gave His life that we might have forgiveness of sins and life eternal. May the Lord be your comfort and strength in this time of deep sorrow. Blessings! Bob & Amy Seaboyer

    I was shocked and saddened to hear of your dear Mother’s passing. It is true that she is no longer suffering, but it takes a very long time to get back the parts of yourselves that left with her. it is a hard road to travel.. They say that eventually you can remember the good times and that the tears will subside. I’m still waiting. I pray for your strength and may God bless you all.
