William George and family I am so deeply sorry for your loss. May God continue to bless and comfort you during this time. To be absent in the body is to be present with the Lord so continue to look to the hills from whence cometh your help all your help comes from the Lord.

Shirley,
I am so glad we connected again from the 70s and you and your daughters got to join me at church one night in December several years ago! I so enjoyed buying Avon from you and seeing the joy it brought you to sell. So sorry we didn't get to visit in the last few years due to Covid. May God bless your family and may you be enjoying your eternal reward in heaven! Love â¤ï¸ You Friend! Connie Bomprezzi McCarter

God is always near to those who have a broken heart. It's really hard to bear the loss of someone so dear like the mother. But know that God is with you; he loves and cares for you. May you be comforted by the outpouring of love surrounding you.
