    “And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” Revelation 21:4

    I will forever remember the mud pies and climbing that big tree in the back yard! Oh and we can’t forget the dance routines we would do before the grownups went out to the club! 😀 Those were the days! 🥰

    Bro. and Sis. Kent and family, though we are never truly prepared for the loss of a child, as believers in Christ Jesus we rejoice. Jackie is a one of a kind person. Always, always joyful. On our last meeting I was not feeling well but that smile and joyous hello made the rest of my day brighter.
