Condolence: Please accept my heartfelt condolences during this time of grief. My hope is that the words of Christ Jesus be of comfort, when he stated that "the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out" (John 5: 28, 29). We can also take comfort in God's personal promise to "wipe out every tear" and that soon, even "death will be no more" (Revelation 21: 4).

Condolence: Erma Rezabek was the administrative assistant to the engineering group of the Energy Division of First National Bank and Trust Company of Oklahoma City in 1980 when I joined the group as a trainee. Erma was the biggest cheerleader for all the young women of our division, she herself smarter than many of us and also the men she worked with! Erma shared the exact birthday with my dad and she and I always shared a special bond. I am sorry for your loss and even more sorry that I lost track of Erma after we moved to Kansas City Missouri and then Cleveland Ohio. She was one of the treasures of my professional life and beyond. I am a better person for knowing and loving her! May she rest in peace!
