Yvette & Yvonne -

Please know my thoughts are with you and your families during your time of bereavement. I was sadden to hear of your mother's passing and apologize for not being able to pay my respects or share these words in person.

As you fully know the God we serve is more than able to carry us through the peaks and valleys that life presents.

I encourage you to take your time, gather the memories mom created, and in your own way begin to celebrate the life and legacy she afforded you.

I align my faith with yours in believing that the Spirit of Christ will sustain you. Be encouraged.

To The Wright Family:

Just to know all the suffering your dear mom endured has finally gone, it should bring peace to you. She is with God and all her other loved ones. I can see her now with her sisters playing cards and smiling down at you.
Your mother's spirit will always be with you. May God continue to lead and guide you.
