I was sadden to hear of the passing of JH'rome, such an amazing young man trying to find his ninch in life. God had a awesome assignment for him. God sent him a message to return to his heavenly home. JH'rome being the young obedient servant that he was answered and went forward with God's plan. To god be the glory forever and ever amen. To James and Micki Tuggle you both assisted god in raising this young man, an awesome responsibility (job well done) amazing young man, raised by amazing parents. I was truly blessed by the introduction of god's young servant. It was a reason why JH'rome couldn't find that right job. God had a plan, we just wasn't privy to it. On September 14, 2016 (Wednesday) God called JH'rome home to be employed by him......What an awesome GOD we serve.........
