I was very saddened of the passing of Isaac. He grew up with my mother ( Juanita Gauthier) and her sisters in Tunica. He was always at my grandparents, Joe and Ethel Aldridge, home. I grew up know Issac and his wife. We would stop from time to time to visit him on our way to visit the cemetery in Tunica. We talk of him often and the old days with my mother. Your family are surely in our prayers.

Morrison and Brown Family



Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart: and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy path.





Blessed are those that mourn, for they shall be comforted." I am prayerful that God gives you and your family that peace that surpasses all understanding, and that you would be given the strength you need to carry on.



Know that my prayers are with you and the family at this time and that we are here for you.
