To the most loving little lady to ever grace us with the warmth of her smile. It's like you were my grandma, I've known you since 5th grade. Your spunky disposition, your loyal soul, your gitty little laugh, I will miss so much. BUT, more than anything, I will miss the feeling of knowing you were praying for me. Your prayers moved mountains and I seen it happen time and time again. Now...I'll look for your signs when I need extra prayers.... Pink nail polish, or red...... cracker Barrell signs, Jimmy Swaggert as I flip thru the TV channels, price is right and wheel of fortune,a Belk sign and ice cream from Dairy Queen. When I see these things, they will always b your way of telling me......."IM STILL PRAYING, BUT YOU, YOU GOTTA PRAY TOO. YOU GOTTA CLAIM THE BLOOD!" I luv you Grandma and I will miss you Every. Single. Day.
💙Michelle

"May the morning sun carress you,
The rains of change refresh you,
And the gentle breeze of His Spirit
Lift the wings of your transformation."

Praying for peace and comfort during this difficult time. Love you!

Seeing familiar things that remind you of your Mom may spark tears now but there will come a time that when you see these things again, you will smile and feel her down to your toesand it warms you all over. My Mother has been in her Heavenly Home for over thirty years i have a lot of her things, but most of all she is in my heart. I've never met her but i grew to enjoy that "Sporty, Godly woman. God bless you and Jimmy for giving her that wondderful life.

Ramona., I am so sorry for you and the family, but I'm rejoicing for your precious Mama. You took exceptional care of her and covered her with Love. I loved seeing the joy that you gave her always! Your story with her is just a beautiful love story. And Jimmy is included. God grant you His peace that passes understanding, and the comfort of the Holy Spirit. We will never forget Lona.

Thinking of you and your family.
Lona was the first one to accept me when I came to your family. She was a person who had only good thought about people and she was a true angel in human form. Death is a fact of this world, which can not be put off. It is inevitable. However, loss of Lona causes grief to all of us. May God give you all strength to bear. Fumiko Carver
