Condolences
Resurrection Hope - My sympathies!
The Bible writer Paul offered hope of relief from that “last enemy,” death. He wrote: “Death is to be brought to nothing.” “The last enemy to be abolished is death.” (1 Corinthians 15:26) That is also why Paul could write: “Since death is through a man [Adam], resurrection of the dead is also through a man [Jesus Christ]. For just as in Adam all are dying, so also in the Christ all will be made alive.”—1 Corinthians 15:21, 22.

Mrs. Sweigart was a very sweet, kind and caring lady. I have know her since I was a about 6 years old (I'm now 59). She was always kind and always gave me something to drink and a snack when I would go to there house and became friends with her son Ronnie. I wish I would have visited her more when I was older. She will be missed by myself and many others, but I'm sure heaven greated her with open arms.
