Thank you Faith and Family Funeral Services for the beautiful handling of my precious Mother. Thank you for teaching me and my sister how to tuck her in like she had done always for us when taking care of us growing up. That was a very cherished moment of getting to say good night. For now. Heaven awaits all believers in Christ. Thank you God for giving this person to be my Mother. And thank you for all the area residents and Church members who loved and carried her in the Community as one of their own family member in their hearts. What a beautiful thing. All of it.
