    Carolyn Joshua and Tori, I will keep all of you in my prayers! Always keep your focus on Jesus and the miracle of the passing of the saints as Jesus rescues us from death as our Christian heritage! That is the hope of our Christian faith! Jesus rescues us as one who has suffered! Jesus rescued Danny! Praise be to Almighty God! Hebrews 12:2! I love you all very much! Carolyn, remember, I am a friend that understands what you are going through and you can call me anytime to talk!
    Love always, Sharon O’Connell

    My deepest condolences to the Reed Family. I was brought up in Barton’s Creek Baptist Church as a child and was fortunate enough to attend church with both Dot and Earnest Reed. May god wrap his loving arms around Dot and may she feel his presence during this most difficult time. Comfort for his wife, children and grandchildren as well.
