Doing things together as sisters do, had many good memories. Love You, Sjs Rest In Peace.
Dear Bob and Donna, on behalf of ourselves and The Missionary Church, Michigan Region, we want to convey our deepest sympathy and condolences to you at the passing of Bob’s mother. While Brenda and I still have Mom Britton with us, we both know what it’s like to go through this kind of separation and grief. We are sorry that we will not be able to be with you for the visitation or service, but we will be in prayer for you. How fitting that you, together, will officiate. We love you folks and will pray for you and your whole family that the Lord will use Ruthanna’s passing to bring all of you and your family much closer to the Kingdom of Heaven and the hope that only Jesus gives us. ‘Christ in you, the hope of glory’ (Colosians 1:27) In His Love, Jim & Brenda Keller
