Obituary For Sandra Marie Russell

"The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. yea, though I walk through the valley of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me." Psalm 23: 1-4
