What a lovely picture! I wish you the best Aunt Kay, and I'm happy to know she is now with Jesus. Love from your extended family in Springfield OR., which includes Nenna ,Eli, Luci and Mario Jr along with their babies.
Kay and Dwight,
I am so sorry to hear of Dovie's passing, but so glad that she is not in pain anymore. I dearly loved her and will always think of her anytime I play hers and mine favorite song, "Stormy Waters". Dovie's now walking the streets of paradise hand in hand with our Lord and Savior singing and shouting praises to his majesty! Can you just imagine the time she's having up there? May God comfort and ease your pain, but just remember, we'll see her again one day in that beautiful city!
Kay, I have always liked your mother, she was a delight. I remember her working in the concession stand at the ball games many years ago. She will be missed. Sorry for your loss.
To lose a loved one in death is almost unbearable, but there is hope. Please find comfort in knowing that there will be a resurrection. You have the opportunity to reunite with your loved ones who have died.
John 5:28,29
What beautiful singing up in heaven there will be now that Dovie has gone to be with the Lord. She will be missed......Ronnie enjoyed her in church services for many many years. I pray that I can be as well thought of as your dear sweet mother. Love you all and will be praying for you in the empty days ahead. Her days are full now and full of glory.
So sorry to hear about your mother.Saying a prayer for you today.
So sorry to hear of your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Doug and Shirley (Melton) Bradshaw
