May Jehovah comfort the Purvis Family at this time. Bro Purvis was always a comfort to me when we saw one another; sharing something spiritually upbuilding. Especially when we used to street witness in Downtown Richmond. He will be missed.

Dear Betty,
How sorry I am for the loss of your brother-in-law, "Joe". Please know I am thinking of you and Ro and that others are too as you go through these most difficult days. You know Jesus is with you and will continue to comfort you and bring you the strength you need. My very best to you both.

To the family of Brother Willis Purvis:
Remember your love one will not be forgotten. Bro. Purvis holds a special place in my heart. I found him to be so genuine and sincere. I was glad to know him and see him from time to time.
Love,
Ms. Mae McClendon
