I am so sorry to have missed the service for Violet. She brought a ray of sunshine into our church every Sabbath morning. She & I always greeted each other & talked about our week. I called her to see how she was doing & make sure she if she needed help & also to cheer her up. I look so forward to seeing her when Jesus comes when she will never be ill again. I thank the Lord for the precious time I was able to spend with her & I miss her.
