To Jolyn,
I was saddened to hear of the passing of your mom. I know too well the pain as I lost my mom in Janaury of this year (Edna Williams - from Urbanna Inn). My mom was more than my mom, but my best friend, this is the hardest thing I have ever had to do. I know that the Lord will bless you and be with your throughout the rough road and he will also be right beside you as days get brighter. May he bless you and comfort you at this time. My mom and yours were good friends when we moved into the area. My mom treasured her friendship. They lost touch, but my mom always talked about your mom with happy thoughts and memories. They are now together again laughing and "carrying on" as they did when they were with us. Lana is whole again, free from pain and free from suffering. Again, God Bless you and your family - you all are in my thoughts and prayers. Love, Debbie (Williams) Wilkins

Such a wonderful person has gone home. And left us here to grieve and moan. No one knows the day or the hour, God only picks the most procioous flowers. Lana and my sister were great friends, now in heaven they are reunited again.
You will be greatly missed.

"I have fought a good fight, I have finished the race and I have remained faithful. And now the prize awaits me-the crown of righteousness that the Lord, the righteous judge, will give me on that great day of his return......." 2 Timothy 4:7-8. Lana truly deserves her crown of righteousness. She will be missed.

Captain Robinson,
You will be miss by officer's and inmates alike. You have gone to a better place, where the streets are paved with gold, land of milk and honey. No more suffering, where you are healed. You were the heart and soul of MPRSC. You may not be there any longer, but you will not be forgotten.
