"When you pass through the waters, I will be with you.  When you cross rivers, you will not drown. When you walk through fire, you will not be burned, nor will the flames hurt you.  This is because I, the Lord, am your God, The Holy One of Israel, your Savior..."  Isaiah 43:2-3

Dear Laura,
My prayers are with you and I too understand the grief of losing a child. Hold tight to your faith and find solace there.

Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you.

I share in the sadness over this.  Lance was a great guy.  Almost like he was bigger than Sharpstown when we were there!"

My sincere heartfelt condolences to the Marino family.  God Bless Lance Marino! R.I.P."

I TOO AM SO SORRY.  LANCE WAS A CHARACTER AND WILL BE MISSED.  MY CONDOLENCES TO HIS FAMILY AND FRIENDS.

"Oh, would that my words were written down! Would that they were inscribed in a record: That with an iron chisel and with lead they were cut in the rock forever.  But as for me, I know that my Vindicator lives, and that he will at last stand forth upon the  dust; Whom I myself shall see: my own eyes, not another's, shall behold him, And from my flesh I shall see God; my inmost being is consumed with longing."  Job 19:12 23-27

Dear Family of Lance, " I'm so sorry to hear about your great loss.  Lance was such a gregarious and wonderful man.  I went to the University of Houston as well and also in the Hotel and Restaurant Management college.  So we were friends in school.

I wish and pray for your strength in this time.  I can tell you that Lance was so lovely and kind, and I'm sure he touched the hearts of many many people.  I remember him to always be smiling and in a beautiful and happy mood.  I'm sure his memory will live in such a positive way in so many people's hearts."

As for me, I am already on the point of being poured out as a libation, and the time of my departure has come.  I have fought the good fight.  I have finished the race.  I have kept the faith.  From now on there is reserved for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord the righteous judge, will give me on that day, and not only to me but also to all who have longed for his appearing.  2nd letter of Timothy 4:6-8

Dear Laura, my prayers are with you.  In such a tough moment of grief I pray and hope you will find a measure of peace in your faith, which is strong.  May the Lord that has called your son to eternal life hold you and strengthen you.

May Lance's soul, and all souls of the Faithful Departed, through the Mercy of God, Rest in Peace, Amen.......

No one who waits for you, O Lord, will ever be put to shame.  Remember your mercy, Lord, and love you have shown from of old.  Do not remember the sins of my youth.  In your love remember me. Relieve the anguish of my heart and set me free from my distress.  See my affliction and my toil and take all my sins away.  Preserve my life and rescue me.  Do not disappoint me, you are my refuge.  May innocence and uprightness protect me: for my hope is you, O Lord.....Psalm 25

I met Lance in 1991.  We watched a movie over at your house.  Shortly after, I moved to Austin.  We didn't keep in contact, but I wondered about him, and hoped good things for him.  My mom met him once and thought he was such a great guy.  As a mother myself, I wanted to let you know that my friendship with Lance was brief,but I found him to be a true gentleman, very sincere and kind.  You raised him well.  It breaks my heart that his life was brief and my thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.

I love you Lance, this is your childhood friend, Deborah, I spoke with your mom, I love you and miss and feel so sad. I wish I had been there for you.

My nephews are very special, my nieces are very special to me, but to loose one so unexpectidly is beyond words. Lance was a good person and will be remembered in that light. Hopefully his mother, Laura, will find some kind of comfort in knowing that another mother lost her son on the cross.Have faith right now and we all will be reunited one day. Uncle Louis

"LaNce was bigger than life!  Such a great guy, wonderful memories I will always cherish."

Lance was such a sweet,special person and he will be truly missed by so many people! My thoughts and prayers are with the Marino family.  God bless!

It will take a long time to heal this wound.  I will join you and dad when the good Lord decides to call me home.  Until then I now have two great guys watching over me.  RIP Lance...mom

R.I.P. Lance.  Truly a special person with such a big heart.

Lance, as pledge brothers we spent a lot of time together.  Even though it has been years this news brings me a heavy heart and deep sadness.  I will always remember your fun spirit and great witt.  I pray that you may now rest in peace in the arms of our Lord.

Your Brother,

I met Lance at camp in high school, and by the end of camp, everyone knew who he was.  He was outgoing and never met a stranger.  He was everyone's friend, and a true southern gentleman.  I know he will be missed by many.  Rest in peace, old friend.

Rest In Peace Lance....You will be missed.

Mrs. Marino, you had a most awesome son. Lance was always a gentleman and a better friend than most anyone I know. You have my utmost sympathy and continued prayers. Lori Lynn Walkewicz  Houston,Texas

It's hard to find the right words for a person like Lance. When I first met him in high school, I felt like I knew him for years. He was always happy and no matter how bad my day was, he was there to talk me through it. I'm lost for words to see him go, but I know God has a great guy sitting next to him now. 

I'll see you on the other side old friend, vaya con dios. We will all miss you greatly.

Loving and merciful God, as we entrust Lance to your mercy, pardon his sins and give him eternal life in your kingdom, where there will be no more sorrow and no more weeping or pain, but only peace and joy.

Will see you and Henry David when we are called.

Love and prayers.

Darby Poole and Brooke Flores will always remember Lance as having the biggest heart.Lance went out of his way one year to make sure that me and my daughter had a christmas tree.He will be loved and missed  forever.

I was so excited to have reconnected with Lance via Facebook last Fall, yet I am so sad that busy lives prevented us from reconnecting in person. My deepest sympathy to Mrs. Marino and the entire family. 

The earth has lost a great man but heaven has gained another a ray of sunshine. 

God Bless!

After a loss like this, it's difficult to comprehend God's master plan.  It seems natural to ask why or how this could happen to someone in the prime of their life.  I suppose we can just continue to put our faith into the Lord and trust that our lives are in his hands.  
Our prayers go out to Aunt Laura and to the rest of the family.  Lance will be missed dearly, but he has been welcomed warmly and with open arms by those in Heaven.  I'm sure that Uncle John was waiting right there for him to show him the way.

Love,
Landon Marino

I will always cherish the memories and the times we have spent together. You were such a beautiful person with such a big heart. Your laugh, your kindness, your love for your mother are things i remember most. I will miss you dearly,
Love, Denise Marino Sanches

"Lance was a gentleman and a friend.  We share your loss, Laura, and know that his kind spirit will be with us forever."

My Dear Lance, you have departed so soon, but God has called your name to be with our Heavenly Father in Paradise. My heart is so broken for your mom, because there is no greater love than that of a Mother and her Son. Our prayers will be with Laura and Johnny always. Aunt Linda and Uncle Louis

I worked with Lance at Reliant, he was an awesome person, I am so sorry to hear this, our prayers are with his family.

Sorry to hear about Lance. He was a good guy

My thoughts and prayers are with Mrs. Marino and Lance's family. Lance was a one of a kind guy. He never met a stranger and was loved by many. I was blessed to call him a friend for the last 20 years, he will be greatly missed.

"Grieve not, nor speak of me with tears, but laugh and talk of me as if I were beside you there." 
~ Isla Paschal Richardson

My prayers are with the Marino Family.  I had the opporunity to work with Lance at Reliant Energy.  He was a joy to work with. He had a very good personality. God be with all of you..

This is a verse of a poem that was read at our Daddy's funeral, maybe after all these years they will help bring you some comfort. 

"Then trust in God thro' all the days;
Fear not, for He doeth hold thy hand;
Though dark thy way, still sing and praise,
Some time, some time, we'll understand."

---Maxwell N. Cornelius

In love, your Sister

We will miss you little cousin...your laugh, sense of humor and sweet nature. I do know that you are in the loving arms of God now and he will take good care of you.  We will all be together again someday.  
Love you always.

Lance my friend, "A Country Boy Can Survive", I will miss you! See ya in the next life. 

Your Friend,
Jack Matut

Good-bye my friend.  I will miss you. I will never forget those Reidhiemer days...I only can believe that God has given you peace.  Love always.
