Sorry for the loss of your love one, may you find comfort in knowing that those who have passed on in death God keeps in his memory because they are precious in his eyes. Psalms116:15.

Dear Martha Sue, I have so many wonderful memories of Aunt Geneva. I will always remember trips 'down South' to visit and can still recall the many times I put my feet under your mama's table....oh! what a great cook she was. My favorite memories are of the times she and I would talk about the LORD. She always stood solid in her faith and relied on the LORD daily. She lived her life pleasing to God and would openly share her faith with others. Martha Sue, thank you for caring for your mama....for your deep love for her.
