    For if we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So then, whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord’s. Romans 14:8
    Our thoughts, prayers and love to each of you.

  3. To The Family,
    I am so sorry to hear of your loss and wish to extend my condolences. Death is our enemy at any age and was never a part of God’s original plan for us. He has promised through his word the bible at Revelations chapter 21 verses 3 and 4, to eliminate death along with pain and sickness forever. The resurrection that his son Jesus spoke about in John chapter 5 verses 28 and 29 which reads, “All those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out,” is soon to take place and will allow us the opportunity to welcome back all of our loved ones who have fallen asleep in death, to awaken on a paradise earth and to enjoy life forever upon it. Psalm 37 verse 29. May these promises form the bible bring you a measure of comfort at this time.
    Sincerely,
    Sandy

  4. Words cannot express how I feel I loved you so much you were my true angel here on earth and I know you will continue to be my angel. I feel so empty knowing that you are no longer here with us but with all that you have taught me I will always remember. When I feel like my world is crumbling I will reflect on everything you have said to me and with that and knowing God I will know I will be able to carry on until we meet again I will forever and always miss and love you. I thank God and Mama Jene for making us sisters. You were truly a devoted sister to me and a devoted Aunt to my children.

    Love Your Sister,
    Toby
