To the three marvelous sons of Christine and Kenna. You have honored, lifted, and loved Your Parents with love and respect.
I love your mother and your father with all my heart, and I grieve for you in this separation for a little while. Yet it is wonderful to know that your mother and father have been welcomed by the open, loving arms of God. They are together now forever and wait for you patiently. Your father and mother have been a great pillar of generosity, strength, and Christian faith for me and my entire family. We grieve with you from our heart, but we also rejoice in Christine‘s victory in Jesus. My love always.
Christine loved having her hair done, wearing cute outfits and dangling earrings! She was a true lady who lived a life of service to her family. I learned a lot from this beautiful and wise woman about life but one thing stands out, she accepted people with their faults and once she loved you, she could never unlove you! My prayers go out to her family and all those whose life she touched. Ronald , you will miss that ongoing banter because nobody loves you like your mama❤️
