To the Williams Family:
You have my sincerest condolences. Ms. Viola was my 6th Grade Teacher at Thomy Lafon Elementary School. She was encouraging and always strived for excellence. Those memories have always remained with me. May you find comfort and peace in the love she leaves with you.

Sorry for your loss may you draw comfort from Gods word at Hosea 13:14 Lima Ohio

April 16, 2017

No matter how many times we experience death, it never gets easier! No wonder Jesus told us in that lords prayer, to pray for God's Kingdom. Which will bring the same peaceful conditions that exist in heaven to the earth!(Matthew 6:9,10) We know for sure there can't be any death taking place in heaven! Please look to God's word at this difficult time to get satisfying answers and comfort! To the family, you have my deepest sympathies!
