Growing up in the middle section of Doyle Ave. I got to know many good friends and their parents. The Hunters was one such family. I can remember playing ball in the street and seeing Mrs Earnestine sitting on the porch watching. She would always have a warm greeting when I spoke to her as I walked passed her sitting on the porch. Years has flown by since then and life moves on. The Bailey family have you all in our prayers. God bless the Hunter family.

So we are always of good courage. We know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord, for we walk by faith, not by sight. Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord.
