To Linda and family, I am sorry to hear of the loss of your dear mother. I offer my sincere condolences to you all.
Sending our prayers and condolences during this time of bereavement. May God continue to give you strength and comfort. Love Always.
I will always cherish the memories of Rev. Dr. Murphy (Sweetheart Honey) and Mrs. Murphy. When I was a child, they pastored at St. James RR and my Grandmother taught me that you should always love, respect and care for your pastor and their family. They were legends, to me, and I am grateful that God allowed them to be a part of my life. Rev. Dr. Murphy officiated at my wedding and I do regret that he wasn't able to baptize my son. Rest well, Saints, and receive the glory that the Lord has in store for you.
The Murphy Family has our heartfelt sympathy and prayers. God Bless You All.
I will forever cherish the countless memories of you. That special bond between grandmother and child is unforgettable. And I'll probably never have chitterlings and pig feet again, lol. Thank you Grandma for loving on me! You are forever in my heart. ~Tina Weena
