To Helen and Family,

We are so sorry to hear of your loss. We were out of town and didn't know until we got back and had a message from Josie on the answer machine.Please know that our prayers are with you and your family. You were there for me when I lost my mother and I am so sorry I was away when this happened. I remember all the times over the years that you talked about your parents and I could always hear a lot of love in your voice. May God give you and your family the strength you need at this time.

To the Peters Family,

My heartfelt condolences to you in the loss of a dear woman. Mrs. Peters made some of my most difficult life experiences easy. She was very nurturing and sincere towards me during my time at Fairlawn Baptist Church. Hearing of her passing has caused me to sit in retrospect and remember her integrity, her spirituality, and most of all her wisdom. I will forvever be grateful to God for allowing her to manifest in my life. I will continue to pray for each of you, that this period of bereavement will be a time of happy reflection for you.

Sincerely,



Spencer E. White, III
