Melvin, Carolyn, and Wanda,

Proverbs 31:28 "Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her."

Please accept my condolences for the loss of your mother. I'll be thinking about each if you in the coming days. My prayer is that GOD will COMFORT, KEEP, and SUSTAIN during the days to come. Remember the love and legacy of your mother, and cherish the "precious memories" you have. Trust in the hope of an eternal reunion. Her love will continue to guide you, even in her absence.

To the Scales Family, I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved one. I pray that God will give you comfort and strength during this time. I know that you loved her but God loved her best, for she is absent from the body and present with the Lord. She has entered into that land of No More! Pain and Suffering. Family hold tight to all those wonderful memories.
