We were sorry to hear about your Father. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.
Our thoughts and prayers are with all in the family.
God bless and comfort each one.
A couple of months ago, I went to the hospital with my sister, Wanda, to visit our uncle, George Boone. Wanda had been visiting him at his home quite often. She had told me that George had made a change in his heart and really loved the lord.
I was happy when I talked with George because I could see his love for God. He said that most of his life was a mess up, and said ciggarettes had caused his lungs to be in the bad shape they were in. He said he knew what ‘true life and living’ was all about now. He said God could forgive anyone for anything, because God had forgiven him! He told me he loves all his children very much.
Uncle George was right. God does forgive. He loved all of us no matter what religon or church we go to. God and only God knows exactly what is in each of our hearts.
I beleived you uncle George, and I believe you are with the one who wiped your record clean and wrote your name in His book of life.
See you soon! With Love, your neice Rosemary.
