Everything Has Its Time
1To everything there is a season,
A time for every purpose under heaven:
2A time [a]to be born,
And a time to die;
A time to plant,
And a time to pluck what is planted;
3A time to kill,
And a time to heal;
A time to break down,
And a time to build up;
4A time to weep,
And a time to laugh;
A time to mourn,
And a time to dance;
5A time to cast away stones,
And a time to gather stones;
A time to embrace,
And a time to refrain from embracing;
6A time to gain,
And a time to lose;
A time to keep,
And a time to throw away;
7A time to tear,
And a time to sew;
A time to keep silence,
And a time to speak;
8A time to love,
And a time to hate;
A time of war,
And a time of peace

To: Pastor Applewhite:
Offering my condolences to the Applewhite family. Weeping may endure but a night but joy will come in the morning. Joyce was a wonderful lady she left her mark here on earth, The Lord says:
I will not forget you. See I have inscribed you on the palms o my hand.

Joyce was a former co-worker at Sentara Rehab Center. She took great pride in her work and patients. There was nothing that you could ask of her that she wouldn't do. Her topics of conversation was always her family and her faith. You will be missed. My condolences and prayers to her family.
