My heart goes out to the Matthews family: as a child who lost both parents to cancer at fairly young ages --- I especially prayed hard for Mrs. Matthews because I know her daughter (Sanica's) commitment and oath to the Lord. God's never wavering Grace be with you all at this emotional time! Cleave unto each other it is the best way to honor her memory.

Sometimes God picks a flower that's still in full bloom.
Sometimes the flower that is chosen, we feel He's picked too soon.
We're at peace knowing: in God's Heavenly Garden,
He has placed the ones we treasure.
You have changed our lives forever. RIP.....Dorothy
To: Carey & children.....We will always be here for you guys.
With all our love, Cynthia and Children (Louis)
