Dear Loretta, Condolences from me and Rodney on the loss of your beloved husband, Weldon. After working side by side with you and Weldon for over 20 plus years at the Midway Voting Precinct, I consider you all family. The Word of God reads “The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit”. Psalm 34:18. I pray that knowing that God is close to your pain will comfort you during this time. Love and God Bless. Pat
My sincere condolences to you and your family on the loss of your father. May Our Lord and Creator grant you peace and strength during this time.
I didn’t have the pleasure of knowing your father, but I’m sure he was a special person because he raised an amazing human being: you. Wishing you peace and comfort during this unimaginable time.
P.M. Weldon and family just want to let you all know that if there anything we can do for you or your family please reach out to your brothers and we will provide. Sending prayers up for you and your family. Hold on to God unchanging hands.
My Dear Loretta
As longtime colleagues in Education, NAACP, Church affairs, & just good ole friends over the years, I am extending
my fondest love & care for you & the family at a time such as this.
I say this as I reflect on the manner in which the two of you so lovingly surrounded me as I
went through my challenges with my beloved twin sister, Miriam, 11 years ago as
of January.
How fast times moves forward, but memories of our loved ones remain deeply imbedded as they are never forgotten.
While you are remembering the life and love that I know was shared with your dear Weldon,
may your memories serve as a beacon of support that will undergurd you and give you and your family pleasant & loving thoughts often, as you move forward beyond this period of bereavement.
The joy of having the “love of your life” for all of the years you shared, will now be imbedded in the deep recesses
of your mind, body and soul!
Giving our loving Savior the glory for allowing you a life with the “man of your dreams who carried you in his soul.”
The late Sarah Vaughn said it succintly as she ended a song with- “I’ll Close My Eyes And See You In My Heart!”
May you continue to abide in the goodness of Jesus.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the family.
Sending our deepest condolences to the family.
