Danielle Westbrook 1995-2011

She was so young and such a beautiful and kind young lady. I have seen such sadness in peoples eyes at Rich & Thompson and St. Marks.

I had just met her May 2nd in the back stage hallway after a rehearsal and had spoken with her briefly. My daughter, Lily, knew her from math class and painted backdrops for Anything Goes with her.

I found this short section of her rehearsing with the chorus and digitally zoomed to her in the back row doing back-up for Blow Gabriel, Blow.

Let me offer you these scriptures from God's Word

Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life (through acknowledging the Diety and Forgiveness) in Christ Jesus our Lord.

1 Corinthians 15:55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?

Believers Who Have Died;

1 Thessalonians 4:13 Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. 14 For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. 15 According to the Lord’s word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. 16 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. 18 Therefore encourage one another with these words.
