Del Grace loss of his mother

Post by Del Ray Grace »

Rest in Peace Mother!
My dear mother passed away today as I held her hand and read scripture in her hearing. Thank you Lord for loaning her to us for 81 years. Please keep our family in your prayers as we prepare to celebrate the life of this great woman of God, Loretta Boles O'Bryant!

I'm so sorry for your loss. She was a lucky woman to have such a talented and loving son. Looking at that photo, I'm guessing she was exceptionally proud of you.
