To the family and friends of Miss Elma. Please except my deepest sympathy, may you draw your strength and comfort from Gods word the Bible. You may be comforted to know that according to scripture your mother, grandmother and great-grandmother possessed special mightiness. Psalms 90:10 states," In themselves the days of our years are seventy years; And if because of special mightiness they are eighty years,..." Your mother, grandmother and great-grandmother had extra special mightiness because she lived fifteen years beyond Gods standard of mightiness. May you keep this scripture in mind when you think of your dear loved one from this day forward. My thoughts are with all of you during this time of sorrow.
