Dear Deloach Family: I was sorry to hear about Frances's death. Although we lost touch with each other as we grew up, I'll always have fond memories of Frances and her sister Penny from my childhood visits with them, which were most often at my Grandparent's farm Babe & Dora Dyess in Glennville, Ga. My prayers are with you all. Regards, Wanda Lanier

Dear deloach family, we grieve with you over the loss of Mrs. Frances, may our infinite and compassionate God grant you a sweet and lingering comfort, even in this season of grief. For it was He who decided to bring His daughter home to live with Him in everlasting comfort and joy. I am certain that she would want you to know that she is in peace, and desire that her beloved family would one day join her in the arms of her savior. I think she would certainly want to be remembered fondly by you, but I imagine her prayer to be that you would not look so much backward, as forward, to a bright day of re-union through our Lord and saviour Jesus. His peace and blessing be with you all, the Paul Miles family.

- Paul Miles and Family, Savannah, GA

Though we will miss Frances greatly, it is absolutely awesome to know that right now she is with our Lord and Savior! She now truly knows what it is to worship without any distractions or inhibitions. Davis, you are a friend and a brother in Christ. I will keep you and your family in my prayers and I will pray that God would give me opportunities to comfort you and minister to you during this time of sadness. As God told his people in Isaiah 66:13: 'As a mother comforts her child, so will I comfort you.' I will pray that you will feel that comfort from God. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers, please let me know how I can help and comfort you. Thanks, Hal Brodmann and Family
