I was so saddened to hear of the passing of Mrs. Frances but know that she was prepared to meet her Lord and that she is basking in the Glory Land of Heaven now with all her friends and loved ones already there. Mrs. Frances was one of the sweetest, nicest ladies and such a Christian example for the folks at our church of Harmony. My prayer is for each of her family to cherish the memories and let the love of the Lord give you peace and comfort. God Bless each of you. I loved this sweet lady and know that one day I will see her again in Glory. Love and prayers Barbara
