Alonzo was a treasured friend for many years. A former co-worker at Lummus Industrial that I enjoyed working with!

I would like to express my deepest sympathy MY Family Prayers are with you

Sorry to hear about Alonzo,we were always bumping into each other when I moved back home,not to mention we grew up together..

We are praying for the Family as you endure this transition. Rev. Reid was very kind to our Family when he pastored Tyson Chapel. That kindness and concern continued even after his pastoral appointment. Death is not an easy experience. That is not unusual or unnatural. It is alright to weep and wander why. Just remain in the faith and look to the source of your strength. Those who die in the Lord is only asleep. We shall meet again in the rapture, if we are God's prepared people.

Know that God will lighten your sorrow, and bring you to a point of peace that surpasses all understanding.
