To The Family of ARCHIE BESSIE (BONDS)-BOYD
Dear Family:
“Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you, to myself; that where I am there you may be also.” John 14: 1-3
