To the Burton Family: My prayers for everyone for comfort, strength, and healing. Mother Burton was a beautiful woman of God. I will always remember her as a lady who said what she meant and meant what she said. Not an easy journey to travel now but the memories will help along the way. Whatever tears come out let them out as a release unto God. Even when there are times you have trouble saying the words, God's Word says He has The Interpretor for all the moanings and groanings. Love you all and again my prayers are with you as The Comforter surrounds you.
