My Aunt Barbara was a sweetheart. She always greeted with a smile and a kind word. I knew she loved Jesus and He was the center of her life. It pains my heart to know that I won't see her again on this earth but I am overjoyed to know that she is in the presence of her Heavenly Father forever.
To Barbara's loving children --- our thoughts and prayers are with you. Barbara was a shining light to all who met her. We will remember her as always smiling and shining God's love on us. Take comfort in knowing she is no longer in pain and she is Home with our Heavenly father.
So sorry to hear of Mrs. McGee's passing. Marshall reach out if we can help in any way.
Buddy, Our prayers go up to the Lord today for you & your family. Know that your mother is now in the presence of Jesus & she was welcomed with open arms yesterday. We love you dearly & we are all here for you. Sincerely, Jason, Jennifer, Cody, Katie, Chloe, Hannah & Emma Sides
