It’s sad to hear Mrs. Dorothy Parsons has died, our sympathy goes to all in the family. Some of us may ask why do nice people grow old and die? We personally asked that same question about our own parents, and we found the answer and comfort from words written in Bible at 1 Corinthians 15: 22 – 26. We hope you would receive the same comfort.
