Just found out about your Mother's passing today. Tom and I will always's remember her as a very sweet wonderful person.
David & Family, you are in my prayers I remember Your Mom from Macedonia Baptist Church.
I am so very sorry for your loss. Please find comfort in God's sure promise of a resurrection as set forth in the Bible. (Consider Acts 24:15; John 5:28,29) Those who are raised to life will have the prospect of never again being subjected to misery, sickness, or death. (Revelation 21:4) I hope that reflecting on these thoughts will give you a measure of comfort during this difficult time.
Sheri, so sorry to hear of your loss of your mother. We will be praying for you and your family.
David and families, so sorry for your loss, you are all in my prayers.
I am so sorry for your loss, you are all in my thoughts and prayers.
David and family, I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. My prayers are with you. I'm out of town on a job and can't be at the service. Just now I'm thinking of you.
Sheri, thinking of you and your family. We are so sorry for your loss. I wish I had the opportunity to have met your mother. She must have been a great woman to have raised such a wonderful daughter. You and your family are in our prayers. Vickie and Scott
