Lord,
Give us strength so that we come out of this ordeal with our minds and hearts on Thee. Help us to realize you alone will and give us peace. Help us to understand that weeping endureth for a night but joy comes in the morning.


Lord, we never could have made it without you. You guided us with your hand allowing your grace and mercy to life our spirits and cleanse our hearts.


Sharon Hawkins’s Family and Friends


Love is the spirit of souls, the emotions of hearts. Love is the poetry of dreams, the dance of songs and souls of hearts. God granted Virgil the serenity to accept the things that he could not change, courage to change the things that he could and the wisdom to know the difference.
