Our thoughts and prayers go out to you my dear friend Lynnie. We praise God that he has finally called your sweet mother to her eternal home. Lavergne was such a wonderful woman. I enjoyed her sense of humor, her gentle spirit and her warm hugs and saying "l love you Pammy." I will miss her but I rejoice that she is in the arms of her beloved husband Pastor Thomas Basich and Jesus.
