Carolyn, Willie, Kevin,Todd, John & Children, God loans us our children for only a little while but for many years we get to see their smile. They bring into our lives a mixture of joy and pain. We learn to deal with both the sunshine and rain. Lisa was a wonderful spirit all her own and was one of the best we have ever known. She would want us to live life with zest and remember we can do our best to carry on her work here on earth and make it better for the children for whom she gave birth. Thank God for the short years we all had. Remember her good years and try not to be too sad. God will give you strengh to carry own and help you to remember she was just a loan. I love you all dearly!

John, Kacee, and Camdon,
Carolyn, Willie, Kevin and Todd,
and Grandma White:
Lisa had suffered so much and we don't quite understand, but we know that God called her home just in time. The void that she left will always be there, but God has promised never to leave us or forsake us. We take that to heart for we know that she is in His arms.
Many trials come our way, but God is faithful to see us through each one.
We will always think of Lisa as a woman who loved life. Well now we think of her as she sings God's praises (and kicks up her heels for Him).
She has not left our heart, only earth. She waits in heaven for all of us. Just knowing that she is there gives us a thrill for we know how beautiful heaven must be.

Aunt Carolyn and Uncle Willie,
Lisa and I spent so much time together when we were kids, it was almost like I had a sister. I think about her every day and miss her so much even though we hadn't been that close since we grew up. She was a fun and loving person. Aunt Carolyn, now her kids can be your sunshine. Please call me if you need anything or just want to talk. LOVE YOU GUYS VERY MUCH. LOVE, BETSY

Come To Me
God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be, so he put his arms around you and whispered, "Come to Me". With tearful eyes we watched you and saw you pass away, and though we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hands were put to rest. God broke our heart to prove to us, He only takes the best.

Willie & Carolyn - may I express our condolences on your loss. Take solace in the fact she is with our Lord & Savior Jesus Christ. May God grant you the peace that passes ALL understanding and the promise that He will never leave nor forsake us. Our thoughts & prayers are with you at this time. Our thoughts go back quite often to that tiny village of Jetersville those many years ago and the families that will forever have an affect on our lives. The Morris family was certainly one of those families. God bless you both, Ronnie Salyer for the Salyer boys (Curtis, Ronnie, & Mike)
