A wonderful and God's angel, we are very sorry to hear that you are gone away to haven to be with the Lord at this time. We know, we will see you again, up at the golden gates with your arms wide open and saying welcome right beside Jesus. No more suffering, no more pain, just joy and happiness. Now you can dance like David did praising the Lord all day long. Peace my Brother, Min. W. Ronald and Crystal L. Evans and family
