My deepest sympathy for your loss. What seems to be a long life is never long enough where our loved ones are concerned. Our Heavenly Father Jehovah feels the same way. That is why He has promised to swallow up death forever and soon end all our suffering. (Rev. 21:3-5; Isa. 25:8) May His promises be a soothing balm for your grieving hearts.

Today is a bittersweet day....we know Mammaw is happy right now being beside Pappaw and all her family and loves ones she hasn't seen in years. For those she left behind.....there is a void that will never be filled. When God created Mammaw....he truly threw away the mold. There will never be another mammaw...no one can take her place. And the love and enjoyment she gave to her family and all of the home cooked meals that were always perfect and delicious. You always wondered what secret ingredient Mammaw had in her special recipes. How could she make it taste so good. I will tell you the secret ingredient ....it was love. Love is what made everything so good! Will miss you Mammaw ..... Cindy and I are so lucky to have been privileged to have known you. To all the family, Cindy and I send our prayers and thoughts to all of you. May God bless all of you with his grace and love.

Dear Virgle and loved ones, I am so sorry for the loss of your dear mother. I did not have the pleasure of meeting your mom, Virgle, because I was just one of your high school classmates from Port Neches, Dianne Thompson Hollier (Hollier-married last name). I'm sure your mother as well as your father were excellent parents and fine Christians because you were such a nice classmate - always respectful and polite. Please keep your memories close to your hearts. Sincerely, Dianne Thompson Hollier Formerly of Pirt Neches.
