Dr. Perrineau and Family

Weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning. Words cannot express our sincere sympathy too you and your family during the loss of your Father.

May his memories stay in your heart and mind forever. He is with God now in a home not made by hands but the heavenly Father. He would not come back if he could he is with God.

You are such a diligent hard working young man especially at Royal Missionary Baptist Church whom we love and support in all your endeavors. So stay strong we love you very much.

My favorite scripture is "I can do all things through Christmas who strengthend me." Philippines 4:13.

God will see you through the storm.

Love always.
