To the Buckley Family,

What a Mighty Warrior Mrs. Buckley was, she has fought her battle and run her race!!!! She was such a beautiful spirit and gave GOD all the praise through her delightful voice in the soprano section at St. John. She will be missed by all who knew and loved her. Measure your love not by what you have lost but by what "she" has gained, an eternal home in glory that will never fade or be taken away. She is at rest with her Lord and Savior who loved her beyond measure. May you find comfort in GOD's word that promises I will never leave you nor forsake you. Praying with and for you.
