  🕯 2 Corinthians 5:6-8 So we are always of good courage. We know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord, for we walk by faith, not by sight. Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord. love Jovante'

  🕯 Thank you aunt Loren for allowing me to have memories that I will cherish as long as I live. From a little girl I remember living next door and running back and forth, especially to eat. You and grandmother always made sure that we (family) and also children in the neighborhood ate well. And then when you moved back to Oklahoma I was devastated, but you made sure that distance didn't change anything. I didn't realize what a huge sacrifice you were making until I became a mother myself. Who in their right mind would take on seven children for the entire summer? I now understand that you wanted us to know family and you did it out of the goodness of your heart regardless of what your mind was telling you. Because of you I was able to have a close relationship with my maternal great grandparents , great aunts and uncles and cousins. We worked in aunt Faye's store, watched grandpa peel apples that we picked off the tree so that grandma could make apple pies and preserves. We watched grandpa kill chickens for dinner. I also remember all of us sitting around grandpa as he sung" the bucket got a whole in his head. In okmulgee we slept in the bed of the truck under the stars, until a cow cane and licked one of us in the face and that ended that. We learned how to drive a tractor and feed the pigs. Those were the good ole days. Thank you showing us what it means to be a family. And again thanks for the memories. Your great niece.
