TO THE BRINSON FAMILIES*****
I am so deeply sorry for the loss of a great man:Eld. Walter Brinson.
His love for me and my family goes all the way back to our early childhood years,long before our father passed in 1963. He always has been another father to us,because he promised our Dad that he would look out for us and keep us in church; and he did that.
I loved him like my own Father and
grew up in his Church when we were in Plunkett Town ( Poole Creek).
Then we went to McGruder ST.COGIC where our children grew up. I will never forget him making me sing Rough Side Of The Mountain on
program one day. He really loved that song. We will never forget him,nor the things he done for our dad before his death.
So We say to the family,Be Strong. Keep his legacy alive in you. And just know that he's now resting
in the arms of Jesus. We Love You All. Vernard and Linda Walker
and family.

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

March 27, 2008

please take comfort from these scriptures during your time of bereavementWith that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his peoples. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”
