So sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the words spoken at Revelation 21:3,4 With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away".
I'm so sorry for your loss. Im sorry this late, I just found out. I have so many memories of Garland and my dad Otis Pifer. He was such a good friend of my dad's. Prayers for all of the family.

I love Garland and Beverly. Although he was not my blood kin, he was always involved in our family life events. I will miss him tremendously and extend to his family my love and deepest sympathy.
We loved Bro Cole and know he is in heaven with Jesus. He and Sister Beverly were a blessing to everyone who met them. Wish Sister Beverly peace and love and many loved ones and friends to be by her side as she continues on without her life partner.
Sorry for the loss of your loved one. Your family is in our prayers. The Lawhon's
Praying God will give you comfort and peace during this difficult time. I know he'll be missed tremendously.
He was one of the most God fearing men I ever knew. HE loved the Lord and he showed it every where he went. He was not only a dad to me and grandpa to my children but also my Pastor from Raines Road to Shady Oaks Miracle Church. I know he is happy and up running around now but he will surely be missed. I love you DAD.
He was a wonderful man to no and always with a heart of gold we we’ll miss him and his singing sending prayers to the family.
I spent many years with bro. Cole at church and will never forget such a great man. I will never forget listening to him sing how great thou art and just watching him enjoy being a Christian. He always said don’t weep for me when I go, rejoice for I am with my god! I know he is in the arms of Jesus now, but will miss his soul, say hi to Mema for me.
What a wonderful man . He always made me laugh. . I will never forget the Cole family . May God Bless you all and give you strength. Special love to you Beverly . I have special memories of you ,Garland and your family . My love and Prayers, Sari (Cherie) Cole Shannon
