To My Family:
I offer my condolences to you for the loss of our dear loved one, Aunt Nettie. When I think of Aunt Nettie I remember her sweet spirit and her soft-spoken voice. We will all miss her. We should take comfort in knowing that she has gone to be with the Lord; where there is no pain, suffering or sorrow. She is there with Aunt Bea, Uncle GB, Uncle Wilbert, Aunt Alma and Aunt Retha. I know that they are all rejoicing over her. May the peace of God that passeth all understanding guard your hearts. "Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning." Psalm 30:5
I love all of you and God bless you.
Lisa
(Deannie's daughter and your Aunt Retha's grandaughter)
