Rev. Tootie, my prayers and heartfelt condolences go out to you and your family. May God grant you peace and comfort as you go through this journey. R
What a nice photo of Mike and his Lucille!!! He was always a delightful person to be around. And his life was greatly blessed by his TOOTIE. I still remember how happy he was the morning I met her and he introduced his wife.
My dear sister Tootie, I extend my most heartfelt prayers and condolences to you and your family. May God give you peace and strength. May the many wonderful memories of your loved one comfort your hearts. The Lord is with you and He cares about you. Lean unto Him in this most difficult time.
