My Church Family,

Thank you for the food tray, it was greatly appreciated. And I want to

thank you for the visits to the funeral home, the cards and most of all your

prayers. May God bless each and every one of you. You are a great church

family and great people.

Love & Prayers,

Roberta Baker & Sue Vandiver

Dear Walnut Church Family,

Thank you so much for sending up your prayers to the Great

Physician. Praise His Holy Name!! My nephew, Scottie Ward, is doing

wonderful. He still has a way to go for his bones to heal. I want to

thank you too for all the cards, visits and phone calls.

Thank you also for the prayers for my other nephew, Terry

Jennings, he is doing great also. Please continue to pray for their

salvation.

In Christ’s Love

Ruth Smiley

Your kind expression of sympathy

is deeply appreciated and grate-

fully acknowledged by our family.

Thank you for the Bibles.

Corky & Barbara Withrow

Bro. Jeff, Bro. Eugene & Church,

We cannot find the words to say thank you enough for all you have done for us. Thank you so much for

all the prayers, hospital visits, cards, flowers & food.

My thank you seems so small compared to all you have done, but it comes from our hearts.

May you all be blessed for all your kindness to us.

We Love You and We Miss You,

Nancy & Andy Andrews

To my Church Family,

Thank you for all the

visits, prayers and thoughts.

Love,

Vicki & Herman Moss
