Matthew25:34Then the King will say to those on his right, Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.'
This was written about you Kathy, I never met a better person in my life and you will be missed by so many, many people. Your life truly made a difference for so many people along the way. Rest in peace for now my friend until that day when you shall rise again in glory.
Love,
The Kelsey Family
