Condolence From: P. Henderson
Condolence: I am truly sorry for your loss. However, John 5:25 says “the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who have paid attention will live”. Those who have died and are in God’s memory will be resurrected to a restored earth and have a hope of everlasting life. (Psalm 37:11, 29) I hope this brings you peace.

Condolence: Dear Johnnie,
Reverend Trotter just called to let the Ann Ree Colton Foundation know of your husband Lenon's passing in mid-November. We all were saddened to hear this news. You and he have always been so gracious in welcoming ARC members to your beautiful church. The Morning Star Baptist choir will miss his contribution to the music. And, everyone will miss his powerful prayers, even if surely they are stronger in heaven. God bless you and your family.

Condolence From: Min. Donald C. Reid
Condolence: Family of Deacon Lenon H. Mitchell,
The word “deacon” means “servant”. I Timothy 3:13 says,” For they that have used the office of a deacon well purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.
What a blessed man to have experienced such a full life on this side of eternity. What a blessed family to have benefited from having him and all that he was.
As long as life on earth was for him, it is no comparison to the life of eternity he has entered. The purest joy and happiness has now begun. Cherish his memories, celebrate his life, but don't neglect to follow his lead. Seek that same Savior that has so marvelously prepared a place for him and all of us that love HIM and are called according to HIS purpose.
Deacon Mitchell’s longevity serves as evidence of God’s approval of him. We, who love the Lord, know that Deacon Mitchell is now in the comfort of the Savior. All his collected tears will now yield joys unspeakable. Corruptible is now incorruptible and he is the grateful owner of his own mansion not made by hands.
Family, mourn if you must but don’t forget to honor Deacon Lenon H. Mitchell and his God by rejoicing over his life which is now eternal.
Respectfully,
Minister Donald C. Reid
1113 Saunders Ave.

Condolence: Uncle the last time I saw you was two years ago for the 4th of July holiday. We embraced and I remembered fussing at you for not being home when I first came to your house, but you said I was at church. I remember you going to your pastor asking him to allow me to do a family prayer at church on Sunday. I remember your smile when I finished the prayer. I knew you were proud RIH uncle you will be missed. I know one day I shall see you again. I love you your niece Marva.
