Mr.Emory a man of respect. Respect: A feeling of high regard, honor or esteem. As the words of Pilate"I FOUND NO FAULT IN HIM". Family,it seems that tears will never end when we must part with love ones and friends. But as we ache for those held dear, "THE FATHER SPEAKS MY CHILD I'M HERE". May God mend your broken hearts with his perfect love.(Isaiah 53:4) Rodney&Edna
May the Lord comfort and bless you all. Lean on him and He will give you strength to endure. Effie Watters and family
