Prayers of peace for Dr. Monica Elkins Scott and The Elkins family. Continue to trust in God during this time of bereavement and loss. To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord.
My prayers and condolences to the Elkins family. Curtis you will truly be missed my friend RIP.
My deepest condolences to the Elkins family. Shirley, Moni and the entire family, Curt was a caring person, he will be missed from Golden Acres with his welcoming spirit, now his spirit will be welcoming in heaven. RIP Curt!!
Many prayers for peace and comfort to Monica, Ms. Shirley and the entire Elkins family. The most important thing is Curt’s relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus said in John 11:25 “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me will live, even though they die and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die”. Jesus is the creator and sustainer of life…including life beyond death. So as difficult as it is to lose a loved one, we can find hope and joy in the fact that Curt was a believer in Christ and has been set free, never to experience pain ever again. Hallelujah to Christ our King!!!!!
Monica
