Add A Condolence

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.

Albert and family, praying God to wrap His loving arms around each of you for comfort during this difficult time.
