To the Family of Mrs. Williams;
Her suffering has ended, she fought a good fight. We know that the ultimate healing for the righteous is to pass form death to life. Truly she has finished her course. She is at home with Jesus. We will miss her quietness and talking with her, her daughter Lovina and son-in-law about the goodness of the Lord. We will also remember her playing BINGO with us. Weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning. Our prayers are with you all.

From the Residents of Sentara Nursing Center, Hampton.
