   My condolences to the family. I was blessed to have been showered with the love and kindness from this very special Lady for almost 30 years. She will be truly missed on this Earth. Heaven has gained another beautiful angel. To Poppa Vernon, I send you much love and many hugs. May you be comforted as only God can.

   Ahh, my friend Alva~ what could I say abut her strength and kindness that the family would not already know? She was my neighbor, and I also counted her as my friend. She was always available to help me with cooking tips(I didn't have anyone to teach me), & I'll cherish those backyard over-the-fence chats we had. We called each other "girl," even though neither of us were spring hens! She amazed me with her continuous care for her husband and her mowing skills as well! That lady never slowed down. The Hortons were the very best neighbors we ever had, and I will MISS having such great people close to us. Rest well, Alva. I'm glad that you're not hurting anymore. I'll miss you greatly, but Heaven gained one BEAUTIFUL soul! Fondly, Mary and Jim Jedrey

   I am so very sorry for the loss of dear Alva. She was my mom's best friend for 67 years and she misses Alva terribly. No words can soothe the pain or heal the wound. Yet, there is hope in seeing Alva again someday. I know that Alva was a woman of faith in Jesus, and through her trust in Him, she has eternal life. Gone from our present realm, but in the presence of her Lord and Savior, perfectly healed, no more pain, no more sorrow. Though our lives seem to move slowly, it is only a mere breath compared to eternity. For anyone reading this, my mom, Pauline Martin Saud, will vouch that I am a staunchly logical person, who does not believe something without understanding that it is truth, searching out every evidence that I can, and having formed my conclusion, still constantly seeking new information to either reaffirm or change my conclusions. I can now say without a doubt that having been a believer in Christ, Alva would want all her loved ones to put aside any fear or bitterness, or unbelief, and challenge yourselves to truly seek the truth that Alva was blessed to be raised with and affirmed, that she would want us all to know, to see if Jesus be God incarnate, who has come to rescue us from the evil in this world, a world that was stolen from him by using his own perfection of following his own laws, that he gave us choice to believe him or not and the evil in this world uses that against him by deceiving us into not believing that he even exists. Therefore, He came as a ransom to win back who so ever is willing, to receive the escape from this stolen and corrupted land. If a person truly wants to know the truth, and step out of the blindness this world puts us in through fear, bitterness, and hate, if you instead want to know the truth of ultimate sacrificial love and mercy and justice, then ask God to reveal Himself. Alva knew this truth and she awaits all those she loves, hoping to be reunited with her, hoping we will put aside the trickery that has been used against us to keep us from the truth. The truth is truly just this simple, Yeshua Jesus, the man who is God who came in the flesh, paid the ransom with his own life so that we could be restored to him one by one, by using our own free will to choose him and his rescue. Thereby we awake from the oppression of the evil of this world that keeps us in bondage only until we choose to be freed through opening our eyes to Yeshua Jesus. The truth that we were stolen and put into a sleep to keep us from knowing the only truth, which is Yeshua Jesus, the Christ who stepped into bondage where we are so we could be freed by simply taking into our hand the rope that pulls us up to freedom from this evil pit. That rope is merely trusting him. I pray that every part of this world that is seeking to keep all those who can read this from knowing this truth, that that evil be bound and silenced in the name of our rescuer who conquered all evil, Yeshua Jesus, our Lord, our King who came to mercifully rescue us. Amen. Alva, as your sister in Christ Yeshua Jesus, I have shared the message I know you would want me to share. I take this opportunity to say these things to honor your dedication to my mother, in friendship and as sisters all your life. I pray this message honors the gift of lifelong love for each other that you both shared. Your friendship together was amazing. Thank you, Alva.
