Judy, preston and I have talked so many times how you and Tommie were what love truly is. It was felt when you two were around. Enjoy all of your precious memories. God will see you thru.
Sorry to hear of Tommy’s passing, my sympathy to all of the Quintrell Family .
I was employed along with several family members at the old Kanawha Block Company . The Quintrell ‘s were good honest employees .
But a man dies and is laid low;
he breathes his last and is no more.
11
As the water of a lake dries up
or a riverbed becomes parched and dry,
12
so he lies down and does not rise;
till the heavens are no more, people will not awake
or be roused from their sleep.
13
“If only you would hide me in the grave
and conceal me till your anger has passed!
If only you would set me a time
and then remember me!
14
If someone dies, will they live again?
All the days of my hard service
I will wait for my renewal[b] to come.

You will call and I will answer you
