To my Friend Felicia and the Green Family,
When Ashley told me about Lynn's passing (into GLORY) I was sadden but the first thing I thought was . . ."absent in the body present with the LORD" . . . . GLORY HALLELUJAH!!! Yes I know how much it hurts BUT know God says He is close to the brokenhearted and He WILL comfort those who mourn. God has ALL of you in His loving arms!!
I must add, that I LOVED how close you and your sister were. The bond you guys had was phenomenal, you guys set the barometer in sisterly LOVE!
Please know you and your Family are in my prayers.

To Tony Green and the Entire Green Family please accept Kelvin and Rhochelle Phillips heartfelt condolences .. When I heard my heart stopped and my knees got weak.. Lela was truly a woman of God.. She was an awesome nurse, that´s where I first met her.. I was afraid to get a blood transfusion but Lela stayed with me assuring me everything would be ok.. She prayed over me and sang to me until it was over.. She then told me about her church and Pastor Jackson.. Thank you Lela for who you were to this World.. I Thank God for allowing you to Grace my presence.. Rest In The Lords Arms my sweet friend ... Praying for your families strength Amen

Lynn. Words can not express what you mean to me and how devastated I am. I appreciated all the light you given me since the day I was born til you traded in time for eternity. Now I have to live this life til the end of my days without you and missing you. All the unconditional love my heart will always hold for you. Peace.
