TO: Egg Man, Mattie and Family,

We were so sorry to hear of Jake's passing. Take comfort in knowing he has gone to a better place and we will meet him again one day. May God bless and protect you all during your time of bereavement.

To Mattie, Egg and Gwen:

We were glad to see Jake at revival services with a smile on his face, and that was the last time we saw him. Truly, God is a great and awesome God, and He will keep you during your time of bereavement. Keep the faith and hold on to God's unchanging hand. God will strengthen you during your time of sorrow. We love you and God loves you too.

Love Always,
Sylvia and Jimmy

May God bless each of you during this time of bereavement. Jake was a very nice man, my neighbor my friend. Oh I can remember the good times we had; I will all ways remember his old saying "JAKE JAKE THE RATTLE SNAKE".

Eggman and Family
I am truly sorry to hear of Jake's illness and passing. You are in my prayers.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Jake was good person with a good heart and we are sorry to learn of his homegoing. God willing, I will be there on Thursday to share the homegoing service with you.

Sincerely,

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

We were so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow.

TO VENNIE I KNOW ITS GOING TO BE HARD ON YOU BUT JUST TAKE IT ONE DAY AT A TIME AND THE LORD WILL MAKE AWAY AND SEE YOU THROUGH YOUR GRIEF.

My Heart goes out to you at this time and in the days ahead.
