  4. To Bill, Don, Kay, & the rest of the family & friends,

    May God lift up your spirits on the wings of eagles soaring and comfort you during your time of need.

    ‘But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength;
    they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run,
    and not be weary; and they shall walk and not faint.’ Isaiah 40:31

    I know beyond a shadow of a doubt, there were singing, rejoicing, & trumpets sounding during Wilma’s Homecoming in Heaven. Let us all know that Jesus paved the way for our entrance into Heaven and for those that believe in Him, we will all share this Homecoming one day with all of our loved ones. ‘What a Blessed Day that will be…’
