I wont ever forget you sweet lady of the Lord. I cant be sad in your passing cuz every time we visited with each other you talked about the day you wud be called home. Thanks for the friendship you had with my Momma that made easy for you to talk to her in a difficult time for us girls to do. I will see you again my friend, I love you.
I was really sad to hear of Venita's death, she was my oldest living first cousin. I would call her two or three times a year, but always on her birthday. She was always wondering why God had allowed her to live as long as she had. She was such a Godly person and it showed in the way she loved New Home Church, her family and how she continually prayed for them to follow and serve Christ. There is no doubt or question where she is today, where she has longed to be for so long, with her Savior and other family members. I will miss the long talks we had and how it was a blessing to me, but the next time I see her time will not matter.

Our thoughts and prayers with all the family.
so sorry to hear about Venita. She had a green thumb especially African violets. Venita and David's grandmother, Mae Adams were close.

She was always a joy to talk to at the American Legion fish fries.
