Joan and Faye, Connie and I go back 39 years and we were neighbors for the last 6 of those years. I cannot grasp the fact that she is not there any longer, but because of our visit on Friday before her 'going home,' I know that I will see her again. To say that Connie was a 'hoot' is an understatement. More than her fried chicken, I will miss her laughter. I will cherish those funny expressions that I call 'Connieisms' for a long time. She will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Amen

Dear family, My wife and I are very sorry for your tremendous loss and would like to express our condolences to the family. We cannot imagine the great pain and sorrow you are experiencing during this most difficult time. When we lose someone we love, we have a strong desire to see that person again. It's wonderful to know God has promised that those who have fallen asleep in death will live again. John chapter 5 verses 28 and 29 gives us this wonderful reassurance: 'Do not marvel at this because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life.' What a marvelous hope! Once again we wish to express our condolences to the family. And although we cannot erase the pain you are feeling, it is our hope that this can give you a small measure of comfort.
