Psalm 23: The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul; He guides me in the paths of righteousness for the sake of His name. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

Our deepest heartfelt sympathy and may Peace of GOD that surpasses all understanding bring comfort to all now and forever. Treasure the memories of your Love Ones in your Hearts now and forevermore. Continual prayers in the days, months and years to come. Jamesena West-Hardin & Family
