To the Mitchell Family,
As it pleased God to reward our dear cousin, Leroy Mitchell, in his transition from time to eternity, be comforted by Jesus' words in John 14:1. Only those who have gone through a comparable experience know the struggling & the searching the death of a loved one brings. This is our sad time. We will miss his smile, his kind words and his warm embrace. God is our refuge & our strength, a very present help. We are sorry we cannot be with you at this difficult time.
Love,
Rev. Jerome and Judge Cynthia Fordham

To the Mitchell family, Deacon Leroy was their for everyone, just almost a year ago he was by my side when my husband passed. To Elaine I truly know what you are feeling right now, but all I can say is to hold on to God's unchanging hands.Roy was a person who did not find it robbery to share a kind word or to help someone along the way. Children live by the legacy your father left behind. To Marilyn, Rosa, Richardine, and my Bootsie prayer changes things. Weeping may endureth for a night, but joy will come in the morning. Be encourage Jesus loves you, and so do I, don't worry be happy.
