Acts 9:39

‘And Peter arose and went with them. And when he had come, they brought him into the upper chamber. And all the widows stood by him weeping, and showing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them.'

At their plea Peter went with them. And when he came to Tabitha's house and entered the death room he found may weeping widows, and the fruit of Tabitha's good life laid out for all to see. The widows would be among those who would most miss her ministry, for they benefited by it. They were ‘naked and she clothed them' (Matthew 25:36).
