Moma Seal-I will miss your peach float and your laughter. You'll always be in my heart. Thank you for being a part of my life. I am thankful my wife and chidren were able to meet a very special person in my life and glad that my children were old enough to remember their visit with you. Heaven is much better place because you are there. My heart goes out to all the family.



God bless

It is very painful for the people left behind when a loved one has gone on to the Kingdom of God, however, those of us who believe in the one and only true God, Jesus Christ Our Lord, know that one day we will see Mary Lou Seal and all of our saved loved ones again in heaven. What a joyous day that will be. God Bless Us All and God bless those who are seeking. We can only pray that they will find what we have found. Eternal Life Forever and Ever.

MaMa Lou was a precious, dear lady who, by the grace of God, stood by her family, representing the love of God to all her loved ones. God blessed her with attentive servants to the end. May her memory live on in the hearts of those who love her.
