    I am sorry to hear about the loss of your dear loved one. Please accept my condolences at this painful time. Losing a loved one is distressing and as comfort is needed from family and friends, we have assurance from the Bible that "death will be swallowed up forever" at Isaiah 25:8. It is my hope your family will find strength to endure during the days ahead.

    Sister Phyllis and LaToya And family I'm so sorry about your loss Brother Melvin will truly be missed. Sister Phyllis keep holding your head up and don't let go of God's unchanging hand. I just happen to be looking at the web site looking for my cousins program and I saw brother Melvin. I will keep you and your family in prayer. God loves you and so do I. Love sis Cheryl Mack

    The Almighty has promised that he will heal the broken-hearted and bind up their wounds. During this time in your life, the wounds are deep and open. Psalms 147:3 Trust in that promise to sustain you during your bereavement.
