  1. What an honor to have met this lady. The sorrow you must all feel at the lose. May God hold each of you in His arms and give you comfort as you face the days ahead. Joy awaits in the morning as we each reach the crossing and join together in the land where there will be no sickness and no more parting. Tim take comfort in knowing she will always be in your heart. It is not good bye but see you some day. Love in Christ Terry & Juanita Trull

  2. Hilton,
    I am deeply grieved over hearing of Nina’s home going. While we do grieve it is not as some who grieve with no hope. I am thankful there is no more suffering and pain. God tells us that ‘precious in His sight is the death of His saints.’ I am sorry that we are out of town and will not be home for the service. I pray you are filled with His Peace that passes all understanding.
