Orange, CA Monday, April 5, 2021 Linda, Sandra and Ronda,Although we cannot be with you on Tuesday for Aunt Doris's service, we are with you in our prayers, thoughts, and live-stream. May God comfort you in knowing that because Jesus has risen from the dead, we too will rise and join him and our loved ones in the splendor of heaven.
I don't think it is a coinsidence that Doris passed on Maundy Thursday, Grandma on Good Friday, and Mom on Holy Saturday and were able to spend Easter in Heaven.
Love,
Garry and Leigh Ann
