2 Comments on “Robert Sherman Wode”
Dear Wode family,
I’m sorry to read of your loved one’s passing, and may all find comfort in our Lord’s word during this time of sadness.
In John 11:23-26, “Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.” Martha said to him, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection on the last day.” Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, shall live. And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?”.
The above scripture is a wonderful promise from our Lord Jesus, and those who have passed on are now in the care of our Lord God, who has shown his love for us through his Beloved Son.
Rest in peace, dear brother; your reward is waiting.
God’s continued blessings be upon you all.
So sorry to learn of Bob’s passing. To me he was Uncle Bob. A man I met only once, but will always remember. My condolences to Uncle Bob’s family and friends. May you find comfort in your memories and the hugs of those who share in your loss.
