The Cycle of Life

The cancer has won. Despite a valiant but grueling fight, Gary had to face the final defeat in that war Monday afternoon. He now rejoices in eternal victory throught Jesus Christ our Savior.

Arrangements are:
Visitation at E. J. Fielding Funeral Home in Covington, LA Thursday from 4:00 - 7:00.
Services are in Shreveport at the Kingston Road Baptist Church Friday. A short visitation will begin at noon with services at 1:00.
Burial will be at Forest Park West in Shreveport.

Some compensation for this loss had been provided by the birth of our second granddaughter. Mikaela Rene Hammett was born around 7:30 last night! Mother and daughter(s) are doing well. Mark continues to soldier on.

Love and gratitude,
Robbi

Robbi, what a title for your comments today. The Lord Giveth and he taketh away. God bless your new granddaughter and best of luck to her parents on their second child. We continue to pray for your strength, as you continue this week's journey.

God's Strength, Ike and Sue
