Allen –
I’m so sorry for the lost of Melissa, you two, Daphne and I had some good times together.. I wanted to be there on visitation but I just got out of the hospital with a bad leg and unable to get out to drive. But my prayers are with you and the family.
David
Thank you Dave. We sure did enjoy getting together
“God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes
and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore.
The former things has passed away,” (Revelation 21:3,4)
Our thoughts and prayers are with the family, God has gained another angel.
