So sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the words spoken at Revelation 21:3,4"With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.

To all of the family, you were very blessed to have Gwendolyn for a role model to lead you thru her life. She has also touched many lives with her teaching Sunday School. I happen to be one of those people and I thank my Lord for giving her to me as a child to teach me the Bible. I will never forget her as I'm sure a lot of other people feel as I do. She is now with her Lord and Savior and family members already gone on. I know you will miss her but she is where she always knew she would be. God needed another special angel and he definately got one with her. She is at rest now in her final destination. We should all strive to see her again some day. You are in my prayers. Love you all.

Gwen was such a favorite for all of us who worked at Medic Pharmacy no matter the age. Everyone who returns to visit has always continued to ask about her. She lived her life focused on God and family and was an inspiration to us all. She leaves us with many happy memories. We hope you find comfort in the days to come

I'm so sorry for the loss of Mrs. Cole. She was one of the nicest and sweetest ladies that I have ever met. She always had such a sweet smile on her face and it showed in her eyes so you know she was smiling from her heart. My sister, Marsha Martindale Cole loved her and thought a lot of her. I know she will be missed by friends and family.
