Sandra, We’re praying for you and the family during this time. May our Lord wrap you in his presence, comfort you, and grant you the peace only He can give.
Bobby has received the ultimate healing and has met Jesus, face to face. What a glorious thought this is. 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
Love you sweet sister & friend!
