To My Family:



Although we've lost Uncle Nay, God has gained one of his servants. My uncle was a man of God, a man of integrity, man of very little words, but such large impact. Its evident that my Uncle Nay had influence on so many lives. Just remember family that GOD makes no mistakes. My uncle was a very humble person, and always would give and aid in any way possible. I've got such great memories of my uncle. He will never be forgotten.

May God continue to be with us as we try to mend our hearts.

Levoyla and Family,



I am so sorry to hear about what happened. It's been a while since Jamestown/Shulerville has been "home". When you grow up in such a small community, events like these send ripples far and wide. We are never really as far away as we think; certainly, we're never too far away to feel. I cannot find the words to express adequately how deeply Ron, Omega, Dawn, my Dad and I feel for you, Courtney, Byron and the rest of your family. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you all. We are praying that God grant you and your family continued strength and peace that passes understanding.



Peace & Blessings

It is with great sorrow that we say good-bye to "Nay" as we call him. We'll always remember his smile and his warm and cheerful personality in welcoming us into his home and into his heart. But we take comfort in knowing that the abruptness of his passing is but a path to the endless glory that awaits him as he now smiles forever in the presence of the Lord. Amen! God bless his family and give them peace, comfort, and the strength to overcome their Loss. Amen!

Levolia, Charles, Ann, Oleatha and family,



I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Death is such a devastating part of life we must go through, and it's even harder when unexpected.



The love of family and friends will help ease the pain as you move forward but, the promises of God in His Holy word is what has sustain us in days past and in days to come.



I urge you now, if not ever before to; Trust the Lord with all your heart, and lean not unto your own understanding!



Love you all!
