My mother was the center of my universe, just as I and her other loved ones were the center of hers. if you knew her, then you loved her; she had a smile that was contagious, and a heart that was vast. She rarely had a negative thing to say, but when she did, she was usually right. My mother was the sort of person which were gifted with an intuitive nature where people were concerned, if you were hurting – she knew just what to say. If you were Ill – she knew just what to do, if you were confused – she usually knew the answer, and lastly, If you were alone in this world – she would quickly and selflessly take you in. My mom was very proud of the fact that i had become a minister, but in truth – I am more than just a bit human; the one thing that she wanted for me more than any other was just this: That I would be happy in life”. While i find love and contentment with my Lord jesus Christ, my wife, my children, my sisters and my Dad – Until I see her again, I fear i will never be completely happy again. So, I press on, and continue the work that I am called to do, and i thank god that he has enfolded my most beloved in his healing and loving arms. I will see you soon mom, I still have work here to do. I love you… Georgie”
Condolences to the Hunley family. Please be assured that one day we will see our loved ones again happy and healthy. Jesus promised at John 5:28 & 29 that all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out.” I pray this promise along with loving memories fill your heart with comfort and peace.”
