Trey and Family,
Losing a loved one is never easy, no matter what the circumstance. 86 years is truly a blessing. I, too, just buried my Grandmother a month ago. It is my prayer, that God will comfort you and your family now and forever. Cherish those he left behind....

Gwen and Sway
I am sorry for your loss. Rondalynn and I lost her grandfather about a week ago. He was like a father to me since I was 18 years old. I can honestly say I know how you two must be feeling right now. Just remember your grandfather had a long full life. Sway, he was with you for 34 years. Be proud and celebrate his life with laughter and praise.
Love

Dear Sway, Mr. & Mrs. Sellers and family,
Over the years you all have been a big heart to everything and everyone whom you all come in contact with. I hope that your father and grandfather is at peace and that your mother and grandmother is healing. It is hard to lose those who we cherish daily. However, your grandfather lives in you all everyday and is the reason that your work on earth matters.
I love you all to bits and pieces,

My prayers and condolences to the Williamson family, especially to Mrs. Jimmie Bradley, my morning inspirational walking partner. To live is Christ, to die is gain. Do not sorrow as those who have no hope. Look to the hills from whence cometh thy help, all of our help comes from the Lord who made heaven and earth.
God will keep you and He will sustain all of you at this time of loss. The joy of the Lord will be your strength in this hour. May you be comforted by Gods' presence and power. Peace be with you.

To Rev. Williamson's family. I have never met Reverend Williamson, but I am a friend of his grandaughter, Nosizwe Sellers. I'm sorry for your loss and I know you will miss your loved one. However, this is a home going for him now, and just imagine the time he is having in Heaven now. He is walking around on streets of gold with Jesus! It doesn't get any better than that.

I know that this is a great loss for you but I also know that the love and respect that you have for each other will bind you together so that the burden and sorrow will be easier to bear.
God Bless you and your family.
