Condolences

Condolence From: Jen VanSkiver
Condolence: My daughter, CJ, was an FHN classmate and friend of Jalana's. I had the pleasure of visiting with her on several occasions during school-related activities where she always had a smile and kind words to share. CJ thought very highly of Jalana and would speak of her often when recounting the best parts of her days at Northern. I know their friendship was among those most special to my daughter. She will be greatly missed. The entire VanSkvier family sends our most heartfelt condolences to you all.

Condolence From: Maria Salerno
Condolence: The first time I met Jalana, I remember how shy she seemed. However, as the years went on, it was beautiful to see her confidence build and her true personality revealed. I will miss her laughter and her bright smiles and the occasional “hey how are you?” messages from her. She truly cared so much about others- something you don’t see all that much today. My prayers go out to Jalana and her family. We’ll all be missing such a special girl. I can’t wait to see her again someday.

Condolence From: Jennifer Morrison
Condolence: I have known Jalana since I was 5 years old and we were in the same kindergarten class. I am so thankful to have been able to know and be friends with such a kind soul. She always brightened my day. This past year, she would call me every once in awhile and we would talk on the phone. She was so caring and always wanted to know how I was doing. She brought so much joy and laughter to everyone around her. My heart aches for her family members and they will constantly be in my thoughts and prayers.

Condolence From: Emily Tatman
Condolence: I had the pleasure of having Jalana as a friend in highschool and beyond. She was a light in every room she entered, and she always made me feel special. She remembered everyone’s name and had nothing but confidence in saying hello with the friendliest smile. I am sending peace, love and positive energy to her and her family. She will be SO dearly missed.

Condolence From: Ted Harry
Condolence: I’m so sorry for your loss. This is one of life’s greatest challenges
that we have to face.
Jesus said ,did and promised something that gives us comfort and hope.
In the Bible at John 11:11-14 Jesus liken death to sleep.
This comfort us in two ways: 1) we are assured by those words that our loved ones are not suffering or in pain. 2) If a person is just sleeping he will wake up!
Notice what Jesus does next at John 11:43-44, this is amazing!
Jesus promised us something similar at John 5:28,29 what a beautiful hope we have!
