George and Kristi:
So sorry to hear of the loss of Danny's Mother and George's Grandmother, but I know that you, like my sister and I, can take comfort in knowing that she is in a much better place than a nursing home. Our thoughts are with you, as I know the loss of a family member right at holiday time is even worse.
Randy, Leta , Mrs. Thrash and the whole Roberts family,
We are so sorry to hear about the passing of Mrs. Roberts. You are in our thought and prayers.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the whole family!! I am one of the nursing assistants at Greenbrier Nursing and Rehab that had the privilege to know and care for Mrs. Roberts. I will miss her so much! Heaven has truly gained an angel!
The family is in my thoughts and prayers during this time of your loss.
Martha and family, Sorry to hear about your mother.
What a wonderful family you are ,and I remember
hearing from Otis and you about all the great
gatherings you had on Sundays and holidays. We
don't prefer to settle for memories, but when God
gives us such a great gift we have to be thankful.
I love you all!
To all the family, we are very sorry to hear about Mrs.
Lucille's death. We remember her as a very Godly
woman. I know she will be missed greatly. Just take
comfort in the fact that she is " Celebrating Christmas
With Jesus This Year."
My love goes out to the family. When members of our family fall asleep, we may wonder when we will see them again. One thing that you should not worry about is IF you will see them again because the Bible promises that our loved ones have hope to live again (John 5:28, 29).
The easy way to see Lucile again is to know the meaning of life. The Bible puts it very clear. "This MEANS everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you (Jehovah) the only true God, and of the one whom you sent forth Jesus Christ" (John 17:3). All you have to do is never stop learning about Jesus Christ and his Father Jehovah God, and you may be concealed for a Paradise Earth (Psalms 37:29).
Aunt Lucille was always a perfect example of a Christ-Follower. I have many wonderful memories as a small girl of Aunt Lucille and all her love, care, and kindness for all she came in touch with. She will be missed. Love you all.
Our thoughts and prayers are with all the family during this time.
Our heartfelt sympathy in the loss of your beloved Mother & Grandmother.
I have very fond memories of spending the night with Sandra during our school days. Mrs. Lucille was a very kind and sweet lady. I recently saw her daily at the nursing home while visiting with my uncle Cohen Lawrence. My sister Rosemary and I have always been close to the Roberts famliy. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. We think the world of all of the family. We know Mrs. Lucille is in a better place now.
Our thoughts are with all of you who are so blessed to be a part of Otis and Lucille's family.
We love you and keep you in our prayers.
