Correction: Cousin Anthony may be absent from the body, his memory will forever live on in the hearts of those who love him. Matthew 5:4 said, whoever mourns would be comforted. In those times of sorrow, we pray that God holds you tight in His arms and allows the sweet memories of your precious child to enlighten your heart knowing that John 3:16 says, For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish but shall have everlasting life.

To Cousin Junior, Tammy, and Johnny, we (Dee-Dee & family) send our love and prayers in our absence. Know that we love you, and we are praying for and with you during this difficult time. To my Aunt Mary, I truly thank God for His mercy and grace. For His word and assurance that we are never alone. For His comfort and promise of everlasting life. For where Cousin Anthony may be absent from the body, his memory will forever live on in the hearts of those who love him. Isaiah 1:3, God says He will exchange ashes and mourning for beauty and joy... as Matthew 5:4 said, whoever mourns would be comforted. In those times of sorrow, we pray that God holds you tight in His arms and allows the sweet memories of your precious child to enlighten your heart knowing that John 3:16 says, For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish but shall have everlasting life. Love, Dee-Dee, Myesha, and Keith
