To the family of Marion Klinger, I am so sorry for your loss. May the God of all comfort described in 2 Corinthians 1:3,4 provide comfort for your family. Losing a loved one in death is never easy, but the Bible reassures us in Isaiah 25:8 that soon death will be no more. What a wonderful time that will be for all of us.
We were so sorry to hear of Marion's passing. However, she WILL be reunited with Carlos, and that's a wonderful thing! They were like parents to us from the first day Bill and then later I came to Chambersburg. We missed them greatly when they moved to WY, but we understood perfectly why they had done it. Much love to all of the family from both of us!! Love in Him, DIA and BILL Schumacher
Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Gayle and Gary Henry
I am sorry for you loss.
