I am very sorry for your loss. May the love of family, friends, and Almighty God bring you comfort and support during your time of grief and afterward. (Psalm 83:18; Isaiah 41:10) May your precious memories of Wallace and the hope of a resurrection right here on a restored earth bring you peace. (Acts 24:15; Psalm 37:11, 29)

My deep condolences to the Owens family. Although, we have never met I have lost loved ones to the pain of death. And I would like to share what helped me during those most difficult times.
It wasn't just being around family & friends. But the hope & encouragement you get from the gift that the Most High God gave to each & everyone of us, yes that is His written word the Bible (Psalms 83:18 & 2Timothy 3:16). Please, notice how God's precious son Jesus viewed death in such a gentle way. At John 11:11-14 yes he viewed death as one sleeping. And God gives us the assurance that there will be a resurrection of loved ones from the sting of death (John 5:28, 29). And He even says where they are are & where they will be (Daniel 12:2 & Psalms 37:11). May you look forward to God's promises being fulfilled (Titus 1:2).

I hope these few Scriptures were of some comfort. Please feel free to contact me or visit jw.org for more words of encouragement. Our daughter fell asleep in death and recently my precious husband of 50 years fell asleep in death also. I truly understand.

With deep sympathy,
Sissy

To have lived a life that is respected by all is the sign of a decent man. Bro. Wallace Owens showed love and respect for God, family, and community. This true gentleman will truly be missed. His devotion as a child of God and husband were undeniable.
Family, as God envelopes you in His love, may you find comfort in the support of family and friends as you share memories of this wonderful man. For you, I am praying.
Love,
Wanda R. Lawrence

Wallace's family and my family were neighbors in Columbia, NC. We share the same surname though we are not related. May the fond memories of Wallace be uplifting in times of sadness.

Lois, our prayers are with you in this time of sorrow. Wallace was a wonderful friend throughout our years of military, church and neighbor. He was always there no matter what need arose. We will miss his smile, thoughtfulness and good humor. We will keep you in our prayers.

Although, I didn't know Mr. Owens, no doubt, he was known and loved by many. May the many pleasant memories created over the years, bring you a measure of comfort. Also, rest assured that our loving Creator is there to comfort you as well, because he cares for you. (2 Corinthians 1:3,4; 1 Peter 5:7)

You have created so many wonderful memories with your loved one that you must now tuck in your heart. Death can never claim those years of love God so graciously allowed you to share. May the Face of God continue to light your pathway.
