LETTER TO LOIS: Sunrise/August 20, 1953 Celebration /August 20,2009

Hey Lois...This be me Jacque':)

You use to sing "God Will Open Up The Windows Of Heaven and Pour You Out A Blessing". That is exactly what he did when you were born to Mr.Puddin and Mrs.Carrie on August 20, 1953. But he didn't stop blessing, he also gave you a wonderful husband, son and family that loved you dearly. God put you in my life 8 years ago and we've had a special relationship every since that day at the church. We've had some grand times together that I will always remember especially the whispers and uncontrollable laughs that made us both cry. Our last conversation was short but sweet. You always had a way with words to bring a smile or make laughter in the midst of a situation. The last chapter of your book was Love, Peace, and Closer with your family and friends. You had some good days, you’ve had some hills to climb, you’ve had some weary days and some sleepless night. In spite of it all, your GOOD days out weighed your BAD days...and You NEVER complained. You Kept Holding On and didn't let go of your faith. Now you have "Gone To A Better Place" Up Yonder To Be With The Lord, and "Your soul probably looked back and wondered "How You Got Over". I can hear you telling God "Your Grace and Mercy brought me through; I'm living this moment because of you". As you take your rest in Heaven with Mr. Puddin talking and taking a walk "Down By The Riverside" Always remember the things that made you smile. Continue to sing your songs of Zion in the Heavenly Choir and you don't have to worry about taking your shoes off or someone else sitting in your seat. You are a Beautiful person with a Beautiful Soul and "I Second That Emotion"(one of your favorites from back in the day)!!!

May God Bless the Bingley, Rives, and Entire Family of C.D. "Lois" Bingley



P.S. You know LaConza will probably say "Lord, Jacque' wrote a book....She's such a hater :)





Love and Miss You My Friend!!

Happy Birthday To You :)

To The Family,
Let not your heart be troubled; ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. John 14: 1-3
Lois, has gone home and heaven is rejoicing. Find comfort in the words of the Lord. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

The barriers between Lois' soul and God's spirit has been removed. She will sleep for a God determined while, and then he will awake her to continue on her God ordained journey. Let us all take solace by remembering that the journey to our destiny, which is the return to God, is orchestrated by our Merciful Father. We will miss Lois dearly. She has touched us all, therefore, she will always be a part of us.
