I know that you are resting in the arms of the Father. The last time we talked you said you were tired. Well, now is the time that you can rest, so rest well. To the family of Sister Queen E. Lindsey, I know it’s not easy, but know that she is no longer in pain. Just remember all of the good times, for the good times out weighed the bad. Keep your hands in God’s hands and stay strong.
