Your family have our condolences. Rest In Peace. Frances Williams and family

Dearest Family,

Our condolences to the family. May our heavenly father comfort you during this time. Yes, death is terrible, but God has the perfect solution. Jehovah will empower his Son to bring unbounded joy to those who have mourned the loss of loved ones. Like Paul, I too see the resurrection as a certainty. I hope you can find comfort in 2 Corinthians 1:3, 4 and John 5:28, 29.

Ms. Martin

My Condolences to the Family. Rest In Heaven my sweet Friend. (dad) Sharon Shipman

Growing up visiting Aunt Novilee and Uncle Willie each summer, loving remember him working in his garden in the back yard. He always drove the Atlanta family to Birmingham to visit us. Those were wonderful/loving times. Will continue to pray for you, Jay and the rest of friends and family.

Love, Cousin,Helen Burson Guidry

You have my condolences.
