Dear Family,
It is with a very heavy heart that I express my deepest sympathy on the passing of our beloved Paulette. I was so glad that I had the opportunity to have spoke to her while at the family reunion in July. We grew up together and graduated High School together, I can remember laughing together until we cried, those are the memories that I hold dear to my heart. When we last spoke in July she said she was tired, and I knew that she was ready to go home to be with the Lord,her mother and sister, aunts and uncles and other family memebers. Even though we had not spoken are seen each other in years, the love of family was and continues to be present. Knowing she is with the Lord and no longer suffering makes her passing even more special. I know she will be missed here but, we can find comfort in knowing that she is in the presence of the Almighty. I so wish that I could have been there today, but know that I am there in spirit and pray.
To My Family, stay strong and trust in the Lord.
With Love Always,
Jackie Dickerson-Hunter

May God strengthened you during this very difficult time. We were so very sorry to hear of Candy's passing. Paul encourages us in II Cor. 5:1 "For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens." Sharon, I know that you and Candy were so very close and I know you will miss her. May your faith sustain you in this time of sorrow.

Love and Blessings,

My deepest sympathy to you and your family in the loss of Candy. I know how much Candy meant to you. For years I thought she was your sister as you talked about her all the time and how much you and her had done through the years together. You have been there for her all through her illness. Please know that my prayers are with you and your family.

Tiffany,

I pray that God will continue to bless you and keep you during this most difficult time. I remember back in the day hanging out with you and your Mom over my aunt's. (Victoria) It was clear that you were the love of her life then as I am sure that she is the love of yours. Be blessed and look to the Lord for strength.
