To My Dearest Family,

We have lost a jewel from this earth but God has gained a diamond for his heaven. Aunt Daisy was the sweetest person I have every met in my life. During my childhood she never turned me away. There was always room for one more. I will never forget her kindness. I can see God telling her "Well done my good and faithful servant; you may enter the doors of the kingdom of heaven". We must all now give our lives to Christ to insure we met Aunt Daisy in heaven. God bless each of you.

Love Frenchie
