Heartfelt sympathy to Janie & the family ~
To Mrs. Ivie’s family:
Mrs. Ivie sat near us at Highland for several years. Probably since 2005-6 or so. When our son was in the Marines and overseas, she made a point of praying for him all the time. She would ask of him regularly. I would share updates with her about his journey through life. Caleb made sure to visit with her when he was home. He knew of her constant prayer support while he was in harms way.
She encouraged us, and comforted us, and we hope that we did her as well. What an example of Christian love and compassion. A Walking Testimony she was. You are blessed to call her Mother and friend.
Sincerely,
Roland and Mary Duty and family, especially
Caleb Duty, USMC 2005-present
