    Angela, please know that you and your family are in our prayers. “Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God[a]; believe also in me. 2 My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. 4 You know the way to the place where I am going.” John 14:1-4

    Angie I know your heart is broken, after all you were a daddy’s girl (little darling) and he loved you with all his heart. Makayla & Makenzie hold your mama & each other close & remember all the amazing memories you have with your granddaddy. 2 Corinthians 5:8 “To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord.”

    Angie, Makayla, & Makenzie – the three of you are in my heart, my thoughts, and prayers constantly. I know how much you loved your dad/grandad and how much he loved and lived for each of you. I will never forget his sweet voice in the background as he talked to you when you were there taking care of him. Hold him in your heart forever…he will be watching over you from heaven!

    Angie, Makenzie, & Makayla my heart goes out to you during this time of your loss. Hold each other tight and remember all the good times with him. All the times he called you “lil darlin” each time he watched you up on that stage clogging and dancing your hearts out. All the birthdays that you each celebrated with him cause he will still be celebrating with you just watching from from somewhere else. Angie I know deep down how much you love him I see it in your eyes and smile you talk about him. Keep that glimmer and that smile cause he will see it. Sending you thoughts in prayers.
