Such a beautiful soul. Our sincerest condolences and prayers going out to the family. Blessings, prayers and love.
My memories of Maggie and Ben go way back in time; good and fond ones alike. We shared a lot of time along such as school (Ben), friendship and Nazarene Church. Their girls and I worked together with Nazarene Childrens’ church, music and talent trips all around. What fun! Grieve-as-you must, not-as-others are telling you is right, wrong or indifferent. Cling tightly to our Lord’s unfailing and unchanging hand so you never feel you are orphaned. Wish I could share this with you but health, heat and travel from Stillwater just limit that happening. God bless each and every one of you including my dear friend and sister-in-Christ Debbie Ringo. Those memories are there also. Jackie
