Letter: Remembering a sister's spirit

-A A +A
By The Staff

My sister died on Aug. 29 of cancer. She bravely battled this wretched disease.  In Timothy, Chapter 4,  he said: “He peleado la buena batalla, he terminado la carrera, he guardado la fe.” In English, I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.”

Velma should be remembered for this spirit and faith. She meant everything to us, and it is not just the loss of her physical presence, but a loss of substance to all who came in contact with her. She was so excited about life and her family, even during her illness she never once complained. She only encouraged us to live life to its potential. What more can we ask of this loving soul?

I would like to thank all those beautiful people from the community for all their caring, concern, prayers, donations and gifts.

Bendiciones a todos.
