My condolences to the Jackson Family on the loss of your loved one, Brother Samuel Jackson. We will miss seeing Bro. Jackson at church on Sunday mornings at he was always one of the first ones to arrive, patiently waiting for Sunday School to begin. I will always think of him and reflect on one of his favorite sayings, 'this is the day the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it'. May God continue to provide you comfort during your time of bereavement. Sister Janet Burney, Member, 21st Street Church of God.
