My prayer is that you always rely on the Lord's comfort during this time of grieving. Especially when it too hard to bare. What a blessing to have your Mother on Earth with you so long. I feel so blessed in this way also but we all have to prepare to say goodbye temporarily. I know your hearts are very heavy but seek him at all times for he loves us so completely and he's the ultimate comforter. I know that her memory will fill your hearts daily. All My Love & Prayers.

To Uncle Melvin and the entire Monday family may the peace and love of God is your comfort during this time of bereavement. We all know that God’s words said, and the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus Philippians 4:7. The one thing to remember as people of faith which we’ll get to, see her again. For we are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord. So we make it our goal to please him, whether we are at home in the body or away from it 2 Corinthians 5: 8-9. Our deepest sympathy and sincerest prayers are with y’all. Love, Michael Jolly and family

To Ken and the entire Monday family, may the peace and love of God be your comfort during this hour of bureavement. I know what it feels like to lose a Mother. But we as people of faith really cannot count it as a loss when we know where our loved-one is--resting in the bosom of the Father. So, cherish those happy times and remember the things that your Mother taught you. In the days to come, they will be the guiding forces that propel you forward. You have my deepest sympathy and sincerest prayers.
