Dear Shawn/Wayne and family –
Just wanted to send you my sincerest condolences for the loss of your mom. It’s never easy to lose the ones you love. I recently heard a pastor speak about loss (he had lost his only son) and the importance of placing our lives and faith in Christ.
The message was that if your loved one(s) passed away in faith with Christ, and you are also in faith with Christ, try not to be overly grieved, but be encouraged instead. The joy is that not are we able to celebrate and remember our past and earthly lives with our loved ones, but we also can look forward to an eternal future with them as well.
When I heard his message it brought peace and comfort to me – and I hope it does the same for you.
Thinking and praying for you
Donna

Dear Mr. Guy and Sharon,
Chuck and I are so sorry to hear this sad news this morning. Ms. Bonnie was a great inspiration and encouragement to us, and she will be greatly missed by so many in the Apopka area, where she served the Lord with her gentle and quiet spirit: helping us and so many others (1 Peter 3:4). She had a servant’s heart and loved everyone.
We are thinking and praying for you and we “know” we will see her again!

With love,

Dear Guy & family …Guy was our mailman in
Wekiva for several years when we first moved to Florida from SC.
We formed a friendship that lasted !
Now and then running into each other at Walmart or Sam’s.
In Feb Guy stopped by as I was trimming my Crepe Mrytles for a bit to chat. We got caught up and I knew his Bonnie wasn’t well.
I’m saying all this to let him know we have moved and are now at our daughter’s house in Atlanta waiting for a new house to be finished being built in Ocala!
The lady that bought the house is Kristen and she’s also blond and wanted him to know Steve and I have moved if he rides by and sees her outside..it’s not me.
Steve and I are so deeply sorry for your loss Guy..we love you..Hope&Steve Duncan
