    To the Family of Roy Timbs,I’d like to express my deepest sympathy and concern for you and also share with you the wonderful hope for our dead loved ones. As you grieve Roy’s death, please reflect on the hope in question, which comes from Jehovah God. Through the Bible, He helps us understand how He’ll soon eliminate death for good and bring our dead loved ones back to life again. This is evident in (Isaiah 25: 8), (John 5: 28), (1 Corinthians 15:26), (Revelation 21:3 and 4), which can comfort you in your sorrow. God’s promises are guaranteed because He cannot lie (Titus 1: 2). Moreover John 11 verses 11-14, 39, 43, and 44 as well as (Mark 5:38-42 and Luke 7:11-17 attest that Jesus, whom God appoints to bring the dead back to life, can do it since he demonstrated that when he resurrected Lazarus and two other people while on earth.) As you await the resurrection, please heed Jesus’ counsel at John 17:3 by taking steps to gain accurate knowledge of Jehovah and Jesus through a FREE Bible study with the Jehovah’s Witnesses. Notice that in John 17:3, Jesus compares the true knowledge of God and of him to “EVERLASTING LIFE”, which will be enjoyed here on earth when it becomes a paradise where you can be re-united with Roy again in a world free of SICKNESS, VIOLENCE, WAR, OLD AGE etc… (Isaiah 33:24), (Ps 37: 9-11 and 29), (Psalms 46: 8 and 9), (Job: 33:25).

    To the Family of Mr. Timbs, We were so sad to hear about the passing of Roy. Our Family thought so much of him and his sweet wife. Daddy loved Roy very much and Roy would often asked me, How is Jim? I loved going into his store when he had it and also enjoyed going to the garage sales him and his sweet wife had. Our prayers are with all of you during this difficult time. Jimmy and Geneva Williams, Tammy and Shawna.
