Mrs. Dancy, on behalf of Mr. Dancy's second church, Mt. Pisgah, I offer our sincere heartfelt sympathy. Mr. Dancy was a special part of our personal lives as well as our lives as a church, and we too, feel the loss of a friend and Brother. Deacon Dancy spent some twelve plus years as Mt. Pisgah's Office Manager and his work was decent, in order, and above reproach. He was the best. Blessings to you and the family and please know that you are forever in our thoughts and prayers. Though he will be missing from this earthly existence, know that a 'Rose' still grows on the other side of the wall named Jim Dancy, and if we are faithful, then we will see him in the morning. May the peace of God be with you. Be sustained by God's presence and consoled in His loving care.
