Although I did go to Sabbath School and Church ~
in the afternoon we came back to the fellowship hall
for a memorial service of our friend, Algeritta.
She will be missed by many
whose lives she touched the last few years.
She was unique, so feisty for her age of almost 90 years old.
She was part of our mid-week bible/prayer study group,
[of which I have missed a lot lately].
We had started prayer sentences, thus many could pray
but Algeritta even tho she tried
never got the hang of sentence prayers.
Hers were very lengthy to say the least,
but she believed every wood of her prayers ~
her walk with the Lord proved her faith.
Although, she had a memory problem
and very set in her ways,
she was a treasure to be loved ~
maybe at times disagreed with,
she thought that she was right ~
most always she was.
We each have a different look at things . . .
some are compatible and some are not
but truth never tells a lie
even in a different way of expressing it.
God blessed us those three years ~
her devotion to the church,
she even wanted to go
back to teaching in our new school,
but decided that she wasn't up to the extra to
study for the State Boards in Colorado
to be able to teach again.
She had a beautiful singing voice,
loved to play the piano I understand.
She loved flowers and God's little creatures
plus; enjoyed teaching others about God.
Yes, she truly will be missed by so many of us ~
her life shines on the lives of her family
who love the Lord our God.
Thank you for the kisses and hugs
that you so willingly gave
to those whom you met.
