Condolences & Tributes

Add A Condolence

My sincere condolences to the family at this time of loss. Even Jesus wept at the loss of a loved loved one. Please draw comfort from the scriptural promises at Acts 24:15 and Rev 21:3, 4 knowing that God cannot lie (Isaiah 46:10, 11).

I want to offer my condolences to the families and friends for the loss of your love one, Destiny, in such a tragic manner. Our heavenly Father of tender mercies knows your pain and has promised to remove violence, pain, and death__ "From oppression and from violence he will rescue them"(Psalms 72:14); Revelation 21:4 "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore." . He will undo the effect of death by bringing our love ones in the memorial tombs back to life. "From the power of the Grave I will redeem them; From death I will recover them”(Hosea 13:14). What a joy it will be to see our love ones again who will then never experience suffering from all forms of pain! I hope these words give you all comfort.

I hate to hear of the lost of such a young girl with so much life ahead of her. God sees what you are going through, and is hurting too. He promises to restore life to those in his memory. (John5:28,29) May you be there to welcome her back from this deep sleep in a beautiful paradise earth that God has promised. (Psalms 37:10,11)

I taught Destinee in third grade. She has touched so many lives with her joy and infectious smile. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers. I love Destinee. I am so heartbroken and cannot imagine what you are experiencing. Much love and prayers to you. Amy Benson

When someone we love dies it brings great sadness . That's understandable because we want those we love to live and be with family. Death was not part of Jehovah purpose in the beginning. The bible shows us that He wants us to live and be with family forever. Read (John 3:16) furthermore the bible teaches that in the future he is going to rid the human race of the pain associated with the death. Read revelations [21:3-4] What about those who have already died like Destinee?. At the bible book of John chapter eleven it tells of an account where Jesus Christ showed that his father had given him power to returned life to the man there who have died. (Read that) He can do the same for Destinee.please allow the bible to comfort and encourage you during this very challenging times. It contains answers to life perplexing questions.our hearts goes out to your family. We hope these comments will provide you all a measure of comfort.

I'am sorry for your pain. I hope that it will bring you some comfort to know that Jehovah the God of all comfort will eliminate all grief and provide permanent consolation when "all those in the memorial tombs will hear (Christ's) voice and come out"! (John 5: 28,29)God promises that "he will do away with death forever, and the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces." (Isaiah 25:8)Then, instead of having to "weep with those who weep," all earth's inhabitants will "rejoice with those who rejoice."(Roman 12:15)For more comforting articles on the resurrection hope, please visited our official website at

Destinee Virgin was a student in my fourth grade class. She was adorable, happy, fun, loving and kind. Everyone loved Destinee. She had many friends. She liked to laugh but she knew her school work was a priority. She had a beautiful personality and kept a beautiful smile. Destinee was the joy of the class. She loved to help me in the classroom. I gave her a job as the teacher's secretary. She loved that. Destinee also loved reading, writing, social studies, science and math. She loved writing about what she wanted to be when she grew up. She told me she wanted be a nurse. Her mother, Michelle came to every parent teacher conference and every PTA meeting when she did not have to work. Destinee was a wonderful child. Her mom would stop by the school some days to have lunch with Destinee and you could see the biggest smile on Destinee’s face. It has been many years but it seems like it was yesterday. I will always cherish the memories of her as a student in my class at Wesley Heights Elementary. My heartfelt, sincere condolences go out to Michelle Virgin and her family. You will always be in my prayers. I am going to really miss Destinee. Rev. Audrey Ferguson Edwards

To the family of Desitnee Virgin, so sorry for your loss. May God strengthen the family during this tragedy. Draw close to God and he will draw close to you during this time of sorrow, because he cares. James 4:8; 1 Peter 5:6,7
