To the family of Mr. Jerry Brannon, we, the pastor, associate ministers, and the entire church family express to you our deepest sympathy in the passing of your loved one. Our lives are a rich tapestry of things weve done and said with memories of those we love outlined in golden thread. Although it is sad to lose those who are dear to us, there is comfort in remembering the times they made us laugh and comforted us when we cried. Their thoughtfulness, warmth and unselfishness, and all the times they made such a positive difference in our lives will always be remembered. Memories such as these will never fade with time, but will grow stronger and richer thru the years. May you find comfort and peace in knowing that your loved one is in Gods care, and many thoughts and prayers of others are with you.
