  1. I am so very sorry for your loss Earnest was one of the best man I have ever known. Always rhere to lend a helpful hand and offered great advice. My hearts breaks for his family. Sending loving prayers for comfort.

  2. Dear Swinea family,
    I’m sorry to read of your loved one’s passing and may all find comfort in our Lord’s word during this time of sadness.
    In the words of Jesus found in John 11:23-26; “Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.” Martha said to Him, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.” Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?”.
    A wonderful promise from our Lord Jesus that we can believe and have confidence in.
    God’s continued blessings be upon you all.
