In Heaven, we will all meet again.
Though we are separated from those we love for a time, we can take comfort in knowing we will share God's glory together for eternity.
Living is death; dying is life.--On this side of the grave we are exiles, on that, citizens; on this side, orphans; on that, children; on this side, captives; on that, freemen; on this side disguised, unknown; on that, disclosed and proclaimed as the sons of God.--H.W. Beecher.
Our deepest sympathy and prayers are with you during this, your hour of sorrow.

Till my raptured soul shall find, Rest, beyond the river. Many memories of one of America's reknown Gospel Tenor, The Great Dr. Robert L Prater. To the Prater Family; Namely, Bessie Brown, Deborah Limbric and Dea. Prater, Jr.
Into each life, some rain must fall, but after the rain, new strength you'll gain, Just give him the praise and be on your way, to new heights unknown, reap the blessings you've sown, God loves you, What ever the need, He'll see you through, If you just keep the faith and learn like Job to wait, God will see you through. Keep the faith in God.
Humbly submitted:
