“Your smile was so genuine, your voice so sweet and sincere and you always gave the most comforting hugs. I remember you holding my hands and praying with me after one of my miscarriages and assuring me that God is still God. Sis, you’ve left us to be with the Lord, a true angel…”
She went on to pray for the deceased’s family, requesting that the “Lord grant them comfort, strength and the grace to bear this huge loss.”
