Obituary

A Reflection of Life

 

Let not your heart be troubled; ye believe in God believe also in me. In my father’s house are many mansions if it were not so, I would have told you.  I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself, that where I am, there ye maybe also.                                                                                                 ~ John 14:1-3
