| May you find comfort in the memories that are yours to cherish always, and strength in the companionship of those who share your loss.... Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. (Matthew 5:4) May it be a source of inner strength to know that there's a loving God watching over you, and that, throughout this time of need, He'll stay close by your side. I have fought the fine fight, I have run the course to the finish, I have observed the faith.-2Timothy 4:7. As for me, I will lie down that I may sleep; I shall certainly awake, for Jehovah himself keeps supporting me. -Psalms 3:5

| To the family of Lillian Meadows:
Although I never knew her well, all my life she was one of the members of the community that I heard my folks speak of often. My parents, Jim and Verdie Ball, grieved for them in the loss of their only son and child. I can still hear my Mother talk about how the good Lord had helped them but knew life was hard for them afterward. Now they are all with the Lord as I am sure they were Christians.
With thoughts and prayers to your family,
Jenny and Larry Chapman - Taylorsville, NC |
