James Harris JenkinsJr. 26 March 2011 wrote the following in respect for the life and love of Doloris Comstock

Surely, one of the most beautiful of all things of this earth is a good woman of righteousness, who shines with the counteneance of true happiness in the Lord. Endowed with a greater calling of “bearing children unto the Lord,” good and chaste women delight the Lord. As this picture of one of those valiant sould in His heavenly kingdom is depicted, our Lord Jesus Christ symbolically looks down upon her in His loving attention and care. Her time of life nears a close to her mortality. She has no fear of death, while only admitting to her desire to be onece again with her ‘fore gone’ family who wait anxiously for her return home to loved ones. All hearts will be ful with a joy often described as “exquisite,” and will be theirs forever. Her precious worn frame will be renewed beyond her wildest expectations. Such will be her crown as a woman who has earned the greatest of all glories of the everlasting salvation of those most devoted in living the will or our God and Savior. See her smile, born of the knowledge from within her clear mind, that her life has been acceptable to the Father and the Son in all ways, and in all time. See her hands, every mark upon them speak volumes of the rigors of life, the spirit of giving to others and work performed with a charitable assist to all in need in the name of Diety. Her exemplary life as we all witness it, will servce as her monument to all righteousness in our hearts forever. Surely, she will be a Queen to the Most High God, to rule and reign in the House of Isreal forever.
