Sweet person with n gentle smile rip take yr crown
To a God fearing woman. She knew she was in Gods hands. I will miss her on the prayer line. She said that we were the Faithful Four. Every Tuesday we all join together to pray for each other and pray for all situations. Because it's say if two or three gathered in my Name that God would be in the midst. We miss you and love you.
My sincerest condolences to the family. I pray God gives you strength and peace on the days to come.
Ms. Ruby was a member of our Tuesday evening Prayer Circle. We will surely miss her. She expressed love for Psalm 121 ...I offer those words today to her loved ones..continue to look to the hills where your strength comes from. May God bless you.
