To the Luckett Family:
You have our sincere condolences, Mrs Luckett was a very kind person very warm and welcoming. Some people come into your life for a season, when the season is gone the memories fade, but I know that meeting Mrs. Luckett was not for a season the memories I have are still there, my only regret is that I didn't come to see her, always putting it off, yesterday is the theif of today, you can't turn the hands of time back and I'm deeply sorry for not ceasing the time I had. I often prayed for Mrs. Luckett asking for the lord to comfort her and keep her and let her days be with peace. I know she's in a better place now. I will continue to pray for the family to have there hearts healed and for the family circle to continue to be maintained, and that he carry your hearts as long as needed. Be Blessed.

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.
