I just cannot believe you are gone. It seems like only yesterday I was going to Sunday School in my little black patent shoes and white socks and you were my Sunday School Teacher. Your daughter Cathy became my best friend and my home away from home was your house. I have so many fond memories of you and the love you shared for the Lord and your family. Many nights I either begged to stay at your house or Cathy at mine. You set a wonderful example for your children and their friends and my parents thought so much of you. I know one day I will see you again because you are now walking and talking with the Lord and your loved ones that went home before you. I can see your smile and hear your voice and remember your laughter. You were so very proud of your children and I will keep them in my prayers as their hearts ache for you. God be with you til we meet again
Much love,
Jamie
