To the Family of Ms. McCullum. You have my deepest sympathy! I do not know Michelle, but she was/is a sister in Christ. May her soul rest in peace. Also, my heart goes out to her two young children. No one knows the sorrow of loosing a loved one until it happens, however, God is our Comforter and He said in his Word, he will never leave us nor forsake us. Be in peace Family, for God said He knew us before we entered our Mother's womb. May they all rest peacefully!!
