So sorry to hear about the passing of your loved one. I was one of Ms. Lena dialysis techs. She was always sweet to me I am going to miss our conversations at dialysis.

Praying your continued strength and that our God of comfort will give you peace and heal your hearts. She fought a good fight. God will continue to love and keep her in His care where there is no more sickness, pain nor issues of this earthy life. Jesus will greet her and Mother Patterson is surely giving God praise! Be encouraged and know that love has no distance. Her love, as well as the love of Christ, lasts forever and ever!

My sincere condolences to the family. I worked with Mrs. Lena years ago at Verizon. We lost contact with each other when she retired. She was fun to work with; such a sweet lady and a little fireball too. May her sweet memories bring her family comfort and peace.
