Mawmaw, you will forever be in my heart. You were and are an iinspiration to everyone who came in contact with you. Your life here on earth was exactly how Jesus wanted you to live on this earth. There are no words to express how me and my family felt about you. We know it was time for you to meet Jesus face to face. One day we will meet again. Forever in Gods Kingdom.

Sorry to hear about the passing of Mrs. Vivian. She was a sweet and lovely lady. She will be missed.

Nature

As a fond mother, when the day is o'er,
Leads by the hand her little child to bed,
Half willing, half reluctant to be led,
And leave his broken playthings on the floor,
Still gazing at them through the open door,
Nor wholly reassured and comforted
By promises of others in their stead,
Which, though more splendid, may not please him more;
So Nature deals with us, and takes away
Our playthings one by one, and by the hand
Leads us to rest so gently, that we go
Scarce knowing if we wish to go or stay,
Being too full of sleep to understand
How far the unknown transcends the what we know.
