Rreading these comments have made me teary eyed. Jesus. I loved Susan Ann Rinker. She had a smile on her countenance that lit up an auditorium! Praise Him. Praise Him!! For giving us the opportunity to have Susan in OUR lives. We are the lucky ones. Now, Susan is with the King of Kings: Jesus Christ! We must believe in Jesus. Jesus was no ordinary man.

Lord and Savior, How did this happen to such a great woman? I can't fathom why it was her time. The cruel hand of fate has dealt us a blow so difficult, who knows how long it will last. But, Thy will be done on Heaven as it is on Earth. I reckon we must submit to Him. May He, Bless the family, comfort them, and ease their pain during this most tragic of times.
