        ‘Cast thy burden upon the Lord and he shall sustain thee: He shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.’ Psalm 55:22

        The Pastor and members of the Mt. Olivet Baptist Church were saddened to hear of the loss of your love-one, and extend to you our heartfelt sympathy. We pray that the loving memories you hold in your heart will give you peace and comfort during your hour of sorrow and the love of God sustain in days ahead.

        As clear as a loving word
        or the touch of a hand
        so warm and dear,
        Are the memories of our
        loved ones that
        we treasure and hold near.
        A favorite song or picture
        often causes us to recall,
        The many special times
        that were the dearest one of all.
        And although time
        will heal the loss
        you will never be far apart,
        Because God’s gift of memory
        will always be a treasure
        in your heart.

        Peace be unto you,
        Rev. Matthew T. Barnette Pastor
        Leonard Jones, Jr. Church Clerk
