Bro. Bob and Family,
Our prayers and sympathy are with you all. Sr. Myrl was a blessing in so many ways. She always took time to make me feel welcomed when I lived in Lee, MA from 1985-1986. I also appreciated her ability to take a stand on a position and defend it! All my memories of her are warm and joyful.
My prayer for you and your family is that the love of God would surround you during this time of loss. Glory to God that through the finished work of Jesus Christ and our faith in Him, we will enjoy His Kingdom together!
With Sincere Love and Sympathy,
Jim Archer & Family

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

To Brother Bob and Family...may we all treasure the memory of our dear, sleeping sister Myrl, knowing that God has promised a glorious day, that we will see her again, and without the frailties of the flesh that is the experience of the human family...for now! These words of a favorite hymn often comes to my mind during these departures, and I leave with you:
Many sleep, but not forever; there will be a glorious dawn;
We shall meet to part, no, never, on the resurrection morn
From the caves deepest caves of ocean, from the desert and the plain,
From the valley and the mountain, countless throngs shall rise again.
Many sleep, but not forever, there will be a glorious dawn,
We shall meet to part, no, never, on the resurrection morn. In His Service. Bro. Larry Williams
