    To Mrs Bunny, Mitsy and The Mckenzie and Epps Families:

    There are so many things in life that we may never understand, this is one of them. My prayer and meditation on your behalf is Proverbs 3:5-6 …”Trust in the Lord with all of your heart, do not lean to your own understanding. In everything and all things acknowledge the Almighty God and He will direct your path.” He promises to comfort you; God keeps His promises. My heart aches with yours. You all have my sincerest sympathy.
