To all the family and friends, I’m deeply sadden by the lost of our family member; Lawrence Jenkins. I would be there if I could. God has embraced his soul now. It’s a beautiful thing. It is something that we know occurs; however the beauty of being right in Jesus Christ is to be celebrated. I wish everyone in the family a joyous celebration in the home going of my Uncle Lawrence. Be strong and pray one for another.
