Shannoah and Family:

If Jonette could but speak to you now, her words would be something like this:

"If you could see me now...I'm walking streets of gold. If you could see me now, I'm standing tall and whole...If you could see me now, you'd know I've seen His Face...If you could see me now...You'd know my pain's erased...You would never want me to leave this place...If you could only see me now."

Know that she is resting in the loving embrace of our Heavenly Father and that you SHALL see her again!

My thoughts, prayers and love are there with you always,

Mary and family, Know that everything that God made was good in God's eyes. Just that alone tells us that God comes back to retrieve His own. We, The Samuel family want to take this time to share in the Peace of God that surpasses ALL understanding. We can only share this peace because one day God came and close the hole that was left in our hearts. He did it for us and many others and He will and shall do it for you as you and your family look to God and lean on Him to direct your path. We pray right now, In the Name of Jesus that God will shower down His peace upon all of you as you go and grow day by day! Much Love, Alice Samuel & Family

Shannoah, in the short time we have been friends I always recalled you spending time with your mom. On the phone, of course shopping, or just hanging out. You were always together! Even without witnessing you physically together, I already knew you two had a real bond with each other. Full of love. I know you lost more than a Mom, but a dear friend too. The road will be hard, some days more than others... You just be encouraged that you now have two Angels watching your back. Mom to pick you up when you fall and The Lord to carry you when you need a shoulder to lean on- Be blessed my friend!-You and your family are in our prayers.
