We were saddened to hear of Mrs. Tripp's passing but are so happy to know that she is now in the presence of our Lord. She raised a beautiful family and was a wonderful example for all of us to live by. I remember in the '70's going to a Christian retreat with the BYF of The First Baptist Church and Mrs. Tripp was our counselor. She had such a calm, reassuring way about her and loved sharing her love of the Lord with others. We were pleased to get to see and visit with her and Jeannette at a yard sale that was across from their home a couple of years ago. Mrs. Tripp will always be remembered with fondness. Our sincere condolences to all of her family. Love, Linda (Hooper) and Walter Riendeau

We will forever be grateful to the Lord for letting us know and be a small part of Margaret's life. We met her when we came to Household of Faith all those years ago and have never ceased to be amazed by her. She was truly beautiful, inside and out. Wherever God was moving, Margaret was there. We loved talking with her and hearing little bits of her life, she had a way of making everyone feel special. In the weeks before she went home I kept thinking of a little booklet someone gave us when my mom passed. It described a great and beautiful ship and the crowds of people waving it off as it sailed from these shores and then as it left our view, it came into the view of the crowds of people cheering as it approached Heavens shores!! It was wonderful to think of Jesus and all the people waiting for Margaret!! She is "home" and we will get to see her again when our times come. We hope that brings you all some peace and hope. Much love to all the family. Psalm 100
