Grew up with her in the town of Apalit, Pampanga & went to the same school. She was truly a creme de la creme in her class. I am happy that she lived a beautiful life with Mark. He has certainly brought out the best in her and for that we are thankful. Seeing all of her adventures & triumphs posted on her facebook account brings so much joy to me. It feels like you have also taken me to a journey full of love & hope. For every mountain you climbed I was also there. For every triumph I was also there celebrating with you. God has given her nothing but the best and now it's time for her to rest. May the Lord strengthen us all as we face the challenge of losing a great person.
Dear Mark,
I am sorry I couldn't stay for the food but I was overcome and would make a bad conversationalist at that point. I did want to make sure though that you hear from me my condolences and how sorry I feel for your loss. I feel privileged to have known Lilibeth and honored to work for such an excellent therapist. I keep getting the picture of her in my mind the day we were talking at the office and you walked up and confirmed tickets to one of her favorite shows and the display of her happy dance. Her spirit is a good one and I now live with the motto WWBD. Peace be with you, call on me if you want and remember as the song goes "We'll meet again, don't know how, don't know when, but we'll meet again some sunny day".
May your soul rest in peace my dear Lilibeth...i wish we had the chance to see each other but now you're in a better place. Our deepest sympathy to the family.
I never met Beth but I was struck by her story.I have a daughter named Beth and I would be devasted if she was gone. I did have a daughter that died and I was comforted by the Bible verse at John 5:28, 29. I hope this promise of a resurrection will comfort her family and friends as well.
It is with much surprise that someone dear to us has passed away. My dear sweet cousin. Its been sonlong since we last saw each other and i always believed we would see each other again. But alas the Lord has Greater things in store for you, which is all for the best, so that you can be in his blessed light forever. Farewell my cousin.... till we meet again, rest in peace.
Together with my wife, Joan and my kids, we extend our heartfelt condolences to Mark and the rest of Beths kin, Oliver and Obeth.
Our deepest symphaty and condolences..sorry for your lost mark..beth will live in paradise with our creator..and for sure she will watch and guide us up above...
Beth was a great co worker and friend. She will be so missed. Mark you are in my prayers. Such a wonderful woman to lose way to soon.
May the God of comfort and tender mercies (2 Corinthians 1:3,4) comfort your hearts while we await His promise to end death...... and make all things new (Revelation 21:3-5). He will do this by means of His Kingdom government that Jesus taught us to pray for in the Lords Prayer
My family mourns the loss of a great person. She was such a wonderful addition to our family. My sympathies go out to the rest of her family as well as my brother Mark. They made each other so incredibly happy. She will always be loved and missed.
