We are so very sorry for your loss! Feelings of despair can be overwhelming at this time. We pray that "the Father of tender mercies, and the God of all comfort" (2 Corinthians 1:3, 4) will give you peace of mind and comfort in your hearts. Acts 24:15 says that "there is going to be a resurrection" and Job 14:14, 15 shows that God has a longing to resurrect his friends! We are so grateful that our loving God looks forward, as much as we do, to reuniting us with our loved ones.

I have many cherished memories of Sis. Presnell. Although such earthly losses cause sorrow, knowing she has crossed the "finish line" to her Heavenly reward can let us rejoice for her. I'm praying for the dear family.

Dear Bill and family, Our hearts broke this morning, yet there is rejoicing knowing that Sister Jonnie is with our precious Lord and Savior. I have so many fond memories and appreciate her mentoring me during some of my struggles. Being my secret sister, she added many beautiful angels to my collection, so I now have constant reminders of her in my home. Most of all, I will remember her as a beautiful woman of God. Now, her struggles are over! She will be sadly missed by all of us who loved her dearly. Our prayers will be for peace and the comfort of the Holy Spirit for those she leaves behind. Love, Debbie and Tom Britt
