1 Corinthians 15:52-57
“In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”

To The Holmes & Brown Family
We are saddened by your loss. However, we celebrate the life of Sis. Florence, and we know she is singing and giving God praise in Heaven.
