My thoughts to the Marthaler family. Bud and Christine and the kids and grandmother, Stella, lived next door to me and my folks, George and Polly Lee, in Miles City. Stella was a wonderful friend to all of us. I had to ‘fess up to your dad, Bud, when I was 10 or so about scratching my name on the bumper of his car…and he was, thankfully, forgiving. The neighborhood was a great place to grow up. My best to the family.

Sandie’s family can be very proud of their mom, she was a sweetheart. My folks valued the Marthaler “girls” for their wonderful work ethic and capabilities when they worked at the jewelry store, and I enjoyed working with both Sandie and Bobbie many years ago. Bobbie and Jerry, this has been such a hard year for you. You have been in our prayers. God bless you.

To the family of Sandie Lynn Jaeger, I offer my heartfelt condolences. Enduring the loss of a loved one in death is a burden far too heavy to bear alone. As you face such trying circumstances, Psalm 55:22 encourages you to “throw your burden on Jehovah(God), and he will sustain you”. May the hopeful words He has promised at Revelation 21:4, 5 help sustain you in your time of grief.-jw.org
