To Mrs. Clara's family:
Our prayers are with you. We know that Mrs. Clara is now in the presence of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. This is such a blessing as she fought the good fight of faith. God has called Mrs. Clara to be with Him and now she can take her rest (no more pain or sickness). Her beautiful smile and her kinds ways will always be remembered by all who knew her. Tina, you have been such a wonderful and loving friend, and you've always been like a sister to us. May the Lord keep all of you and draw you closer to Him.
