Father, we are praying for Bobby and Lisa for strength and a healing while in mourning for their mother! And according to Your will, You would hear us; and if we know that You hear us, we know that we have the petition we desire of You. Father, strenthened her children, let them stand strong in the Lord and we thank You, Father for meeting all their needs in Jesus name. Thank You, Father for meeting this petition of strength, anointing, and joy in Christ Jesus. We love you both and praying your lives will go forward and your mother doesn’t want you to be sad. Reach your goals and always do your best. Praying you get to know Jesus Christ, be saved, and He will direct your paths! Love Uncle Bernie/Aunt Connie McKinney. We were not informed soon enough or we would have been there with you at the Funeral Home. Never heard from her sister Ruth, to tell us what was going on with your mother because she doesn’t call us. We visited you in 1992, we called you mom a few yrs ago and we thought she was coming to visit us and Kenneth! Than the last thing we heard was that your mom was doing better on natural vitamins. Blessings!! So sorry for your loss of your mom! You can call us at our home phone 7656432056

Thank you so much! It all happened rather fast. No one had time to fly in. She wanted to go visit very much but shortly after she planned that she was informed of the cancer diagnosis. Thank you for prayers.
