A time to give birth, and a time to die; A time to plant, and a time to uproot what is planted.
3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; A time to tear down, and a time to build up.
4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; A time to mourn, and a time to dance.
5 A time to throw stones, and a time to gather stones; A time to embrace, and a time to shun embracing.
6 A time to search, and a time to give up as lost; A time to keep, and a time to throw away.
7 A time to tear apart, and a time to sew together; A time to be silent, and a time to speak.
8 A time to love, and a time to hate; A time for war, and a time for peace.
9 What profit is there to the worker from that in which he toils? 10 I have seen the task which God has given the sons of men with which to occupy themselves. 11 He has made everything appropriate in its time. He has also set eternity in their heart, yet so that man will not find out the work which God has done from the beginning even to the end. 12 I know that there is nothing better for them than to rejoice and to do good in one's lifetime; 13 moreover, that every man who eats and drinks sees good in all his labor, it is the gift of God.

To: The White Family
On behalf of the Nelson family, we would like to extend our most heartfelt condolences relative to the loss of our beloved Corena. We came to know and love Corena at a very young age during our tenure in Oakland Terrace. Corena was a very beautiful, intelligent young lady and I can almost hear her saying "hey Alice". Corena was a young lady that new exactly want she wanted in life and carried herself exceedingly well.
Corena will be missed by all, however GOD is certainly a comforter and he will never leave you. At this time we the Nelson family wish to leave you with this.

Footprints: A man asked GOD, "Why did you forsake me when I was at my lowest point in life as I only saw one set of footprints when I was weak". God responded, " My child I did not leave you the one set of footprints you saw is when I carried you".

Be Blessed and know that you are in our prayers!

The Nelson Family

To the family of Corena White Jones, I am sorry to hear about such a great loss. I remember meeting Corena in 1989, and she was such a sweetheart.She was genuine then and was up until we last saw one another. She is a jewel that will be greatly missed on earth. Heaven is shining onced again because she is there. Ms Leola and Lena look to God for your healing...Sean allow God to embrace you in His arms. For He will be a mother to the motherless...Corena's legend will live on in everyone's hearts that came in contact with her...

Corena,
To my BEAUTIFUL cousin I love you and you will truly be missed. I know your at peace now... I remember the Good ole days when me, Kaniesha and you would hang out(Tailgate lol). Those are memories that will never fade away.. You were always a blessing to be around,especially when you wanted an UPDO you would always tell me how to style it and oh yeah you would not let me forget to put those rhinestones in it(ONLY you were about to rock it like that)... I will also never forget us living in the same apartment complex it was days you didnt feel like taking Sean to the bus stop and you would call and say " I kno it's early could you take him today but that's what family is for." God knew what was best so i know you are finally at rest! Don't have too much fun up there with your brother James and Agnes... I can imagine the looks on each of your face to know you have been reunited and it feels so good... Save us a spot!!!

To my family
Blessed are they that mourn for we shall be comforted in Christ Matthew 5:4!! Weeping may endure for nite but JOY is still to come... She is in a far better place where everyday is a CELEBRATION.... I love you all!!

To my best friend Corena, words are not enough to express what your friendship meant to me. You came into my life at a time where I thought that I was going to loose my mind. I thank God for having put such a beautiful friend in my path. I feel like the time we had was short, but God knew that you were getting weary. I am truly going to miss you. To the family may your lives be filled with the wonderful memories of a life well lived. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not unto your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct your paths. Love Leslie
