Prayers for the family during this time. Revelation 21:4
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
My thoughts are with you all. Your mother was a second mother to me. I pray you may find peace during this difficult time, and may God comfort you all as only he can.
My deepest sympathy and prayers for this family.. she was loved and will be missed dearly. Bob
I met Mrs. Ethridge 21 years ago as a customer of Dads N Lads. From that point on, she was always so nice to me.
I am definitely going to miss her.
Thanks Mrs. Ethridge for the wonderful memories.
