Sorry family I could not see my forever lovey like that. Please believe my heart and soul is with her. I love all of you and will try what is in my power to be there for any of you, you are my family for life.
Sis Launa was an amazing person. Her heart was to bring as many people into the Kingdom of God. She shared her testimony to as many as she could how God brought her through the many trials. Now she is sitting at the feet of our Beloved Father with a new body. Saturating in His Glory. Rest on Sis Launa! Continuous prayers for the family. May God continue to comfort you in this time.
Love and many prayers,
