Resolution

To The Family of Rose Lance

When mortal life has passed through all the phases and experiences allowed to it, and its responsibilities have been met and fulfilled, though saddened by its close, we should take comfort in knowing that God gives rest.

Whereas, Rose Lance, beloved aunt of Quincy (LuShanna) Jackson, has made an indelible impression for the betterment of her community, and a lasting devotion to her family.

Whereas, it has pleased our Heavenly Father, in His infinite mercy and wisdom, to call from among us and from the labors of this life to the sweet rest and fellowship of saints in heaven, Rose Lance.

Be it therefore Resolved, that even though death causes much sorrow, we encourage the family members to look to God who is able to comfort us in all our troubles and give strength for the days ahead. We pray that the strengthening and sustaining power of the Holy Spirit, will keep you in this difficult time.

Be it Resolved, that although your presence will be greatly missed by your loved ones and those of us who knew you, we will accept with submission God's will, and look forward with joy to meeting you in Heaven.

Be it Further Resolved, that we, the Vanguards of Cleveland and the International Association of Black Professional Fire Fighters, extend to
the members of this bereaved family our heartfelt sympathy in their loss; and remind them that God understands all.


This Seventeenth Day of January 2009

Nature

As a fond mother, when the day is o'er,
Leads by the hand her little child to bed,
Half willing, half reluctant to be led,
And leave his broken playthings on the floor,
Still gazing at them through the open door,
Nor wholly reassured and comforted
By promises of others in their stead,
Which, though more splendid, may not please him more;
So Nature deals with us, and takes away
Our playthings one by one, and by the hand
Leads us to rest so gently, that we go
Scarce knowing if we wish to go or stay,
Being too full of sleep to understand
How far the unknown transcends the what we know.

Alana, Felicia, & L'Tanya: I am sorry to hear of passing of your mother. I truly understand what you are going through because I too have lost my Mother. Remember that time heals all wounds. She would never want you to worry for she is at peace. If at anytime, you need to talk, I am here for you. L'Tanya I live around the corner from you and will come to introduce myself to you. I graduated with Alana from Burke. One last thing that I did that use to give me peace, I read Psalm 23. May God bless and keep you all.

To Alana & family,

Let not your heart be troubled. Continue to look to the the hills, where your help and strength comes from.Just know that God loves you and will keep you in his care.
Sincerly,

Dear Family,
It is at times like this when we feel that no one understands or that "OUR" lost is the greatest. Please remember,Rose is another angel that has been called to the throne of grace...to be with her Father. we will all miss her, but we will take confort and look to the hills from whence our help comes.
Love and Prayers
