Sis. Louise and family, we're all praying for you at this time of your loss and what you are also going through with your own physical health .. Sis, I believe the Lord was working in Bro. Jim's heart throughout the time he was in Wesley Village, and he was very blessed to have the genuine love and attention given him by you, Sis. Marie and Sis. Theresa in daily shifts as you assisted the nurses. Nursing homes can be like a prison for many, but you all were there to make it as comfortable as possible for Jim. I know he can't wait to one day meet you on the Other Side! May Jesus's name be praised!
