Betty, Barbara, Joan and Family,
I was so saddened to hear of the passing of Mrs. Myrtie. She was such a sweet lady and a dear family friend. I know that Heaven has gained another angel and I know that my Mama and Mrs. Loretta were waiting for her at Heaven's gates t Welcome her Home. My prayer is that the Lord will wrap His loving arms around each of you at his difficult time and give you the love, strength, comfort and peace that you need at this time of great loss. But we have the assurance of being reunited with all our loved ones who have gone on before us one day with the Great Reunion in the Sky...Love to all and God Bless Barbara
