To the family of Virginia. Remember that beautiful smile that she always had and the loving things that she would say. I used to do her hair many, many years ago and she was always grateful about how good her Press and Curl looked and I am thankful to have been a part of her life. Acts 24:15 mentions the Resurrection and she is sleeping for a little while. Then the fulfillment of Revelation 21:4,5 will warm all humans heart when DEATH WILL BE NO MORE.
