Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.

I attended junior high and high school with Javona.She always had a smile on her face. I had not seen her in 13 years-until 6 months ago, I had a chance to hug her and talk to her. I am happy to say that Javona had the same warm smile that

I will always remember. My deepest sympathy goes out to all the family and friends . Continue to look to the Lord for strength. My prayers are with you all.

I WENT TO SCHOOL WITH JAVONA, MIDDLE SCHOOL AS WELL AS HIGH SCHOOL. WE WERE IN SEVERAL CLASSES TOGETHER AT LEAST ONE CLASS EVERY YEAR. WE HAD LOTS OF LAUGHS TOGETHER AND I WAS VERY FOND OF HER. EVERYONE LIKED HER BECAUSE SHE WAS JUST THAT KIND OF PERSON. SHE ALWAYS HAD A SMILE ON HER FACE. I WILL CHERISH THE MEMORIES. MAY GOD BLESS AND BE WITH THE FAMILY AT THIS HEARTFELT TIME.



FOR GOD'S PLANS ARE MANY THINGS WE CANNOT UNDERSTAND, BUT WE MUST TRUST GOD'S JUDGEMENT AND BE GUIDED BY HIS HAND. THERE IS NEVER A HEART SO BROKEN, THAT THE LIVING LORD CAN'T HEAL.

YOU WILL BE GREATLY MISSED!
