Mr. Washington Sr.
There are no words that anyone can say or write that would even begin to ease the pain, anguish or fill the void that you must have in your soul. I want you to know that your wife, your Most Precious Jewel, mother of your children, your soul mate, your friend, your prayer partner, confidante, help mate, personal cheerleader, soul mate, and so much more can never be replaced. However, her morals, values and fear of God still lives and will continue to live through the fruit that she bore. A woman of such pristine character, elegant yet strong is worthy to be honored, respected and praised for her service. Although it will not be easy, please Pastor be comforted that she has been a good and faithful servant and can now receive her REWARD for a race well ran. I only had the opportunity to meet and speak with her a few times over the phone and i consider myself blessed as i am still able to be touched and blessed by her through your son, Donelle. I will continue to keep you and your children in my thoughts and prayers. God will see you through this. Continue to trust, rely and have faith in Him....He will NOT fail you now.
