I am so very sad to learn of
Kaye's passing. She was a ray of sunshine no matter where she was or
what she was doing. Kaye was a volunteer at the Gloucester Visitor
Center whose remedy for a slow day was to turn up the radio and dance. I
shall miss her smiling face. ~ Jenny Graziano, Cobbs Creek, Virginia April 04, 2011
Donna and family,
I'm so very sorry to hear about your mother's passing. I loved her dearly. She was one of the sweetest people I ever met. She was so supportive when my dad passed away 2 years ago. I will never forget when I told her I got married August 7th. She said "you are going to have a great marriage because my husband and I got married the same day." She had such a huge smile on her face when she told me that. I will miss her and her smile dearly. I know she is with the Lord, with her husband, and my daddy is probably playing the guitar for them to dance. It is so hard to loose a parent. I know it was for me when my daddy passed away. Donna, I have tremendous peace knowing my daddy is with the Lord. God Bless you and if you need anything please contact me. ~ Amy Bristow, Yorktown, Virginia April 04, 2011
April 04, 2011 May God bless you and your
family in this time of sorrow. April 04, 2011

Come, Ye Disconsolate
Words by Thomas
Moore; alt. by Thomas Hastings
Music by Samuel Webbe
Come, ye disconsolate, where'er ye languish.
Come to the mercy seat, fervently kneel.
Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish;
Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal.
Joy of the desolate, light of the straying,
Hope of the penitent, fadeless and pure!
Here speaks the Comforter, tenderly saying,
"Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot cure."
Here see the bread of life; waters flowing
Forth from the throne of God, pure from above.
Come to the feast of love; come, ever knowing
Earth has no sorrow but heaven can remove.
