May God bless each of you. -The Family As We Look Back As we look back over time we find ourselves wondering ..... Did we remember to thank you enough for all you have done for us? For all the times you were by our sides to help and support us ..... To celebrate our successes to understand our problems And accept our defeats? Or for teaching us by your example, The value ofhard work, good judgement, courage and integrity? We wonder if we ever thanked you for the sacrifices you made. To Let us have the very best? And for the simple things Like laughter, smiles and times we shared? Ifwe have forgotten to show our Gratitude enough for all the things you did, we're thanking you now. And we are hoping you knew all along, how much you meant to us. ~Ewitz b!J ~Pw(E-1..1.-iona1..

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: . He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name' sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: For thou art with me; Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; Thou annointest my head with oil; My cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the House of the Lord forever.
