Guestbook

  1. You will be missed….i am just thankful that I got to see you and John. My thoughts and prayers go out to Jackie, "Stormy" Bill, Angie and your families. Your mom was such a kind and loving soul. She rescued me many times when I was kid. I will be eternally grateful to her. Shirley Briggs Brewster

  2. My deepest condolences to the family and friends. At John 11:35 Jesus cried after the death of his friend, Lazarus, we cry along with you during this difficult time. Jesus resurrected Lazarus, this experience is in the Bible to give us a hope of a future resurrection. He will accomplish this by means of God's Kingdom in which we pray for in the Lord's Prayer. May the words at Rev 21: 3,4 comfort and strengthen you.
