We are sorry for your loss. Reading her obit I’m reminded of a song from years gone by, Find us Faithful by Steve Green. I see her life and testimony has fulfilled her desire: Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful; May the fire of our devotion light their way; May the footprints that we leave, Lead them to believe; And the lives we live inspire them to obey. Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful. Praying for comfort during your time of grief and loss. Looking forward to the reunion to come of those that have gone before. With love and kind regards, Pastor Perry & Kathy Stewart
