Dear Heavenly Father, The Comforter; comfort the Well's family in their time of grief and the loss of Ms. Ruby "Mickey" Turner Wells. O Lord God bless Your holy name as it is written: I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: In Jesus name, Amen

To my family ~
We're so sorry that we must share our moments of sadness together to honor "Mickey", our cousin, our friend. I often think about years of long ago having grown up in our family. She had a meekness about her that we will always cherish. We will truly miss her. Love to the family. ~
