I WAS SORRY TO LEARN OF YOUR LOSS. THE LAST TWO TIMES THAT I TALKED TO "MS. REGIS" - ONCE AT MORNING STAR AND ONCE AT WALMART- SHE WAS VERY PROUD OF HER CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN AND SPOKE WITH GREAT PRIDE OF YOUR ACCOMPLISHMENTS. OF COURSE IT IS ALWAYS A JOY TO MEET SOMEONE HERE IN THE VALLEY FROM BLUEFIELD, SHE WILL BE MISSED. MAY GOD WHO IS YOUR ULTIMATE SOURCE OF STRENGTH AND COMFORT BE WITH YOU ALL.

Dear Family, may these words be of some comfort in the days ahead:
"We little knew that day that God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you. You did not go alone, for part of us went with you, the day God called you home. You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide, and though we cannot see you, you are always at our side. Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same.
But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again."
Ms. Clements will be missed from our church family at Morning Star Baptist. Family, please hold on to memories of her love and share that love.

Andra, Tina and Lynn know that the Lord is in control and that he does not make any mistakes. Your Mother is now in a place where we are striving to get too. I know the hurt and the pain that you are going through and it is not easy, but Regis would not want you to cry and be sad, but to rejoice in what she left to all of you, her Love. I will miss her also she was like a mother to me when I stayed with her, so keep depending on God to get you through.

Love
