For Jesus taught that someday “all those in the memorial tombs” will be resurrected. John 5:28
Isaiah 25:8: He will actually swallow up death forever, and the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will certainly wipe the tears from all faces. And the reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth, for Jehovah himself has spoken [it].
Revelation 21: 3, 4: " With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his peoples. And God himself will be with them. 4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”

Chuck and Jan . . . I am just reading Sunday's paper a day late, and see your mom passed away, likely your last parent. I recall meeting your mother once at either your bridal shower or your baby shower. My mother just passed away in January. If you have any time available while you are here, I/we would love to meet you somewhere to catch up. Count us among your friends who care. Rol and Carol

To the family of Delores Munter, I am sorry for your loss. I always enjoyed Dee-Dee at work at ACHH, and it was good to see her every now and then after she retired. Sincerely, Carol Knapp

I grew up a couple of doors down from the Munters on Turnron in East Peroia. I remember your Mom well. As I recall, I believe Marcia was our baby sitter at one time and Chuck later became our Dentist. Time goes so fast.
Sorry for your loss.
