    To my family back in Brookhaven, MS my heart is saddened over aunt Clara’s passing. But if we all just hold on to our hope in the Lord Jesus Christ we will see her again soon and very soon.
    I’m sorry I can’t make it back to the funeral but I am sure you understand that.
    May the Lord of peace and serenity bless you always and keep you near to each other.
    Love you.
