Dear, Dear Charlie and Sharon,

When this happened, I was selfishly getting married, and did not even check my e-mails! Worse yet, I did not, until today, even see this was available, since my computer was out of commission for so long! It is just now that I am cleaning off old e-mails and came across this beautiful remembrance for you. Please know, that even though I don't personally remember your dear mother, she is one of God's loved children, and I look forward to the day when I WILL meet her, and you will be with her forever! It was so good to see you and Sharon on that cold morning in Edneyville; just sorry we didn't get a chance to visit more. Won't it be great when there will be no more parting!! Just know you are loved, appreciated, and although my life became so preoccupied during your pain, that I did send up several prayers on your behalf for comfort and peace. You've been such a great friend. Thank you for finding me after so many years! May God continue to bless you, both, and keep! Love, Blanche Mejia (and Glen) Farnsworth

Dear Mom: It was great having you as a Mom. You were the best! No matter how tough times were, you made them the best for me. There are not enough words to express my love for you as a Mom. You will be sorely missed by me and your extended family. Now you rest in the peace you certainly earned and deserve. Your loving son, Charles.

Dear Charles, Sharon, and family. Your mother will be missed. Her willing and cheerful service in the church was such a blessing when we pastored there in the early 1950s. Surely she will have a crown with many stars in heaven. What a blessing it will be to see her again. For now she is at peace. God bless her and all of you. Otis and Margaret Graves

Dear Charlie,



It is sad for Ruth to leave this earth, but now her spirit is in the loving care of God. She no longer has to suffer and is at peace. You will see her again some day. Of this I am sure!



God loves you, my furtherest back childhood friend, and will bring comfort you heart.



I will be thinking of you and your family as you return to Ft. Lauderdale on Monday, the place where my parents and I first knew you and your folks. I hope it won't be that long before the Lord comes again and we can all be together in a much better place.



Love to you and Sharon,
