Have a glorious homecoming dear sister. I love you so much. A large part of my heart is missing. I’ll see you when our Lord calls me home.
Momma, my heart and soul are wounded by the loss of your physical presence. In the mist of this loss I have gained your spiritual presence. While one has wounded my heart and soul the other will fill and heal my wounds.
Love always,
Rebecca
Sunda had an “easy going” and “down to earth” manner that made me feel loved and comfortable in her presence. She had a great sense of humor, was very witty and possessed a great laugh and beautiful smile! I loved her and I am thankful that she is free from illness and has entered into rest in our Father’s loving arms. Though gone from our sight for a little while, she lives on in Christ forevermore! What gladness and joy!
To Sunda’s family . . . I’m so sorry for your loss. My remembrance of her will be of many, many gatherings where food, games and love were shared.
Even though we didn’t see each other for the past years you were in my thoughts. Will see you when the Lord says. God bless you and family
