Only in times like this do we know in fullest measure the consultation of
His promise: Verily, verily I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and
believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not
come into condemnation;
but is passed from death unto life. St. John 5:24 - May God send his “Holy Spirit” to minister to you right now by
taking the loneliness away that you may feel and put in its
place peace and love, in the name of Jesus. Amen.Be Encouraged in the Lord, Cousin Angelette Miller-Lewis and Family

To the Blake Family,
We were sadden to her of the passing of Mrs. Blake (or Gramma B. as the children say). Mrs. Blake will be missed by all as she was a positive and spiritual influence on anyone she came into contact with. May the Lord bless you and keep you in your time of grief, then replace that grief with the joy of knowing Mrs. Blake is with the Lord. We will continue to keep you in our prayers.
Love Glenda and Michale Noel-Blake and the Noel Family

To the Blake family, I am sure you all know that your mother, grandmother, sister, and aunt is resting calmly in her Father's arms. Smile now, for her time here will not be forgotten and will live on in each and all our hearts. Rest asured that God does not make a mistake so now that his job has been done lets run this race so that we all will come together in our Father's house. The brick building not made by man.

To the family of Georgiana,
You are in my thoughts and prayers. There are no words to tell you how much Georgiana meant to my family. She was a part of our lives for so many years and I continued to talk with her as long as I could. Your family was so lucky to have such a compassionate, caring, and Christian Lady for your mother and grandmother. Our love and prayers go out to all of you.
