Pam, Vickie and Fred, you are definitely in our thoughts and prayers are going forth, on behalf of the family, as soon as we received word of the passing of Ms. Josephine. The song writer puts it so beautifully, "Earth has no sorrow that Heaven can not heal". Ms. Josephine was loved by both Gladys and I but God loved her Sweet Spirit more. Her beauty still lives deeply in each of you. Therefore hold on to our Lord and Savior's Almighty Hands; find comfort in the memories of her sweet presences and we will see her again in Heaven. Love you much, Lawrence and Gladys Suggs.~ Lawrence and Gladys Suggs Hampton, VA

Remember the words of David in PSALMS 91:1 -"He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most- High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty." We will continue to lift you and your family up in prayer during this most difficult time!~ Dr. Erroll L. Royal Raleigh, NC

What a loving God who cares about each one of us.
He didn't intend for us to grow old and die. He thus has made the SURE promise of a resurrection right here on earth when it is restored to a beautiful paradise (Psalms 37:9-11, 29; Acts 24:15; Isaiah 55;11).
