Oh Mrs Frances I just cannot find the words to really express how much we share in your loss spiritually and emotionally.
All the delicious Sunday meals you and Mr Otha prepared and shared with us. He was such a kind hearted, loving and personable man who loved and especially cared deeply for his family.
But you already know that God knows all and sees all. And when he created you and the children, grandchildren and great that He had all of this in mind. We pray that God's anointed peace will remain with you and the family now and always.
