First Baptist and Vacherie has been served a mighty blow with the loss of three within one week. As we all grieve in our own way, know that joy will come in the morning. Ms. Vivian was my dad's friend. They were both hospitalized at the same time in January, and now, to go to be with the Lord within a week of each other, along with Pastor Garrett...this is a hard time for us all. But, with GOD we all will make it through...God bless you all.

Adriane, I remember you were so excited to have you mother come home so you and your family could have a turn at taking care of her. God allowed it to happen and a job “well done”. May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.
