    I'm grateful - Uncle Jessie D. - that you are home with the Lord; praising God with all of your being. We thank you for your service to family, friends, and congregation - but only our God can give you your deserved reward. "Well done, thou good and faithful servant." Matthew 25:21 With Love from your neice, Sandra

    My sincerest condolences on the passing of your dear loved one. May 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 bring you comfort during this difficult time. "Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God."

    It's so sad to see you go but God blessed me to be able to spend time with you in July and to hear you sing one more time! I will always love you until we meet again, your loving niece Daphine.

    Sharing a poem called "Home Safely" I am home in heaven, dear ones; Oh, so happy and so bright! There is perfect joy and beauty in this everlasting light. All the pain and grief is over, every restless tossing passed, I am now at peace forever, safely home in heaven at last. There is work still waiting for you, so you must not idly stand; Do it now, while life remaineth. You shall rest in God's own land. When that work is completed, He will gently call you Home; Oh, the rapture of that meeting, Oh, the joy to see you come. • Author Unknown
