So sorry for your loss may you find peace and comfort in the words spoken at 2 Corinthians 1:3 & 4" ( 3) Praised be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, (4 ) who comforts us in all our trials so that we may be able to comfort others in any sort of trial with the comfort that we receive from God
Danny and Family, you have my condolences. Aunt Flora will be missed.
A dear lady who has been such an important part of our lives. Verna and I will miss her but, after she sees Jesus, she and Verna's mom, Fay, will be catching up.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to all the family, have known Nona for several years, always looked for them at church, they were a delightful couple. There will be an empty spot in a lot of hearts but we know she is pain free and is with her Lord.
