To The Scott and Howell Family…

David, in the loss of your wife and soul mate;
David Jr. and Ivan, in the loss of your loving mother and biggest supporter;
Demetrius, Tamara, and Marlon, in the loss of your sister and trusted confidant;
And to the grandchildren, aunts, uncles, cousins, and dear friends;

"Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning."-Psalm 30:5
• Joy cometh from the everlasting, special, and unique memories that each of us carry of her in our hearts,
• Joy cometh from the unconditional love and everlasting support that she showed each of us even when we were wrong and especially when we were right no matter what time of the day or night,
• Joy cometh because God allowed her to touch all of our lives in a memorable way each and every day.

Words cannot express our heartfelt sympathy during these trying times. I wish that I could say the pain will get easier with time, it won’t, but time will allow the pain to become bearable.

I wanted to reach out to you during this sad time to offer my condolences. While nothing will completely take away your grief, by meditating on God’s promises found in the Bible, you can find real hope and the strength to keep going. I have found the scripture at Isaiah 25:8 to be especially comforting. Here it promises that God "will swallow up death forever, and the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces."

My friend! She used to call me and talk until she would fall asleep! We would laugh about it.
Deborah's been my friend since the early 1990s during our days in the Finance Office on Fort Jackson. We shared good times and not so good times. That's what true friends do, love each other all the time. Loving on our families and praying for each other. I believe she is alright now. I will miss her but I am happy for her. Prayers to David and the family. God bless you all.
