Barbara and Family
You have our prayers and deepest sympathy during this time. Lisa always had a smile regardless of how she was feeling. I think of the times we shared when our children were playing softball traveling from community to commmunity in the county. I know you will have long days and nights but God is still in the blessing business. Know that God will be with you during the days and nights to come. Be Blessed.

Barbara, John and Johnny:

I last spoke to Lisa Easter Sunday. We had a great conversation and we laughed because the hospital told me they didnt have a Lisa Burrell there! She also told me she was going to be okay. I now know she is okay and at peace. Lisa always was very pleasant and always positive about everything. I am going to miss her dearly.

Barbara, you are in my prayers. Love you!

Know that your baby Lisa is with her heavenly father, at peace; I know you will miss her; but know that she is not suffering any more, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, lean not to thy own understanding, in all ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your path". Lean on God for your strength during this difficult time. If you need me, you know how to reach me. Love always,

There's no sadness Jesus can't feel
And there is no sorrow

I was so sorry to hear of Lisa's passing. I ran into her a couple of times over the past few years and was glad to see, she was the same as she was in school and on the softball field. She had the same smile and a beautiful heart. Since no one on earth can ease your pain, I pray that GOD will bring you and your family comfort. Thoughts and prayers to your whole family.

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

I am so sorry to hear of Lisa's passing. I hadn't seen her in many years, but I have many memories of our childhood growing up together. Mrs. Burrell, you were always so kind to us as kids & I know you can be proud of the strong young woman you & Mr. Burrell raised. I know all too well how much of a toll a death can bring on a family. I hope that you will lean on each other & seek God in your time of grief. Your whole family is in my prayers. May God grant you peace & comfort. If you need anything, I'm just up the road.

To Barbara and Family, I was so shocked when I got the news about Lisa. Lisa was a fighter and a friend, I just sit and think about our younger years of playing softball the fun we had and what a catcher she was no one could get pass Lisa. My prayers are with you and your family, Lisa will be missed as well as that smile. Just know that God has another angel working for him and you have and angel looking down on you always. Lisa is resting in peace now with no more pain and suffering. Keep your faith in God and he will heal all pain and sorrow during this difficult time.
