My thoughts, prayers and condolences are with you in the loss of your wife and mother and sister.

Mrs. Martha was one of the pillows at St. Matthew Baptist Church and she will surely be missed.

I can hear her now leading that old Spiritual "There Is Union In The Heaven, Where I Belong".

May God continue to confront and bless you during the time of your bereavement.
