Georgianna and family, I am so saddened to hear of the passing of your dear husband and I am so very sorry I did not know in time to be come and show my respect and offer some comfort to you. You know I love you very much my Dearest Friend. You and your family have been thru such heartache watching his suffering but now he is free of pain and full of joy in the arms of our Lord. Linwood has left wonderful memories for those who received his teachings, by word or deed and what a wonderful blessing the example the two of you gave as a couple, to endure thru the good times and the bad in today’s world. Your strong faith will help you heal and you will not walk alone in that journey. You are loved and admired by so many and your work is not yet done on this earth. You are a strong woman but please remember in the difficult days ahead, your family and friends will be there for you but most of all, God will never forsake you in your time of need. Prayers and Blessings and much love to you, Dear Friend, and all your family, Judy

Dwayne,

Our condolences go out to you and your family. Your father completed the task that was given to him by our heavenly Father. The angels sang when the gates opened, and the Father said, "Well done, my good and faithful servant." It is not by coincidence that your father went home on the sabbath, the same day that God rested. So now your earthly father is now at rest. God Bless.

November 8, 2009

Dwayne, I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your father. May you find comfort in your family,friends and most of all God who promises to do away with all sickness and death and reunite us with our dear loved ones.

Dwayne, I am saddened to hear of the homegoing of your father but the scriptures instructs us to cry when we enter this world and rejoice when our loved who has fallen asleep in the Lord leaves because to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. We do know that Pastor Linwood is with the Lord today and we shall see him again without pain, worries or tears. God bless you, your mother, your cute little daughters and the rest of your family. My prayers are with you.

God looked around his Garden and found an empty place.
He then looked down upon his earth and saw your loving face.

He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest.
His Garden must be beautiful, he always takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering, he knew you were in pain.
And knew that you would never get well on earth again.
He saw your path was difficult, he closed you tired eyes,
He whispered to you "Peace be Thine" and gave you wings to fly.
When we saw you sleeping so calm and free of pain,
We would not wish you back to earth to suffer once again.
You've left us precious memories, your love will be our guide,
You live on through your children, you're always by our side.
It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone.
For part of us went with you on the day God called you home

Dear Georgianna and Family,

My prayers are with you in this season and will continue. To be absent in the body is to be present with the Lord. I know that was Linwood's desire. His legacy and friendship will live on in all who knew him. I especially remember him taking the time to work with me for caticism for my ordination when I was called to my first church. We love you dearly and are sorry we won't be able to attend the services. May God's peace go with you all...
