INTERNMENT
Cousin Vonda was a beautiful woman inside and outside. Such a joy being in her mist. May God comfort you during this time.
Cousin Von was beautiful inside and out. She was always gracious and displayed warmth and caring devotion to her family. I will remember her modesty in her appearance of a Godly women.
Thank you Cousin Von.
