I am so sorry for your families loss. You and your family are in my prayers.
My prayers are with all of you and may God comfort be there with each of you. I loved her so much and always felt when I went to visit her , even though she couldn’t talk to us that she knew when someone was there especially her loving husband. George has been so faithful to visit, care and loved her with all of his heart. They were truly ” souls ” mate’s “. Heaven has gained another rose.
Love and prayers from Brian Center Weaverville Team!
It has been a blessing to care for your mother and gain a bond with such an amazing family!!! I know that no words can comfort you in this difficult time. Im grateful that you and I serve an awesome GOD that can comfort you and give you a peace that passes all understanding!!! I love you all and pray for you!
I’m praying that your family feels peace and comfort knowing that you’re mom is with Jesus. When a loved one leaves this earth that is a Christian it is not goodbye. It is merely until we meet again and that is what gets me through. I pray that as time passes and you have hard days that the Lord will send angels to comfort you and friends too support you while we’re still here. I love you Marie! Please call me anytime
IAM SO SORRY TO HEAR OF WILLIES PASSING, MY PRAYS ARE WITH THE FAMILY.
