Condolences

Condolence From: Elaine Lambert
Condolence: I wanted to express my heartfelt condolences to all of the Harrigan family. For right now, there's no detour around grief, no shortcut through mourning. However, 2 Cor.4:7 says that God can give us, "... power beyond what is normal ", to go from one day to the next. This does not mean that we no longer cry, or that we forget. It means we recover. We recover because of our hope. Jesus Christ talked about our hope in John 5:28, "... all those in the memorial tomb will hear his voice and come out ". Jesus was referring to the resurrection. That is our amazing hope! The Bible likens our hope to an anchor. Just like an anchor stabilizes a ship, our hope stabilizes us and keeps us from drowning in overwhelming sadness. 2 Cor.1:3 describes our Creator as, "... the God of all comfort ". One way that God comforts us is by moving people who care about us to give us words of encouragement that we need to hear. May the God of comfort be your comfort now, during this time of sorrow.

Condolence: When we moved to West Hartford to Vanderbilt Road in the summer of 1960, the families of renown were the Harrigans, Tierneys and the Pattersons. Memories of all these families and their parents come flooding back and Joey Harrigan who was a few years older than I was, was a fun loving guy who had his own car which had some muscle as I recall. He literally married the girl next door, Barbara Grogan who was friend to all in the neighborhood. My prayers go out to the Harrigan/Grogan Families and of course Barbara and Joe's children.
Love and Blessings Barbara,
Chris

Condolence: Dear Mrs. H,
You have my deepest sympathy. I wish you peace and comfort during this difficult time, my thoughts are with you and your children.
May tender memories soften your grief and fond recollection bring you relief,
May you find comfort and peace knowing time and space can never divide keeping Joe from your side.
There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand words . They are the messengers of grief, of deep contrition, and of love.

Mrs. H....If you need anything I am here for you.
