A very special thanks to our FBC family for the many prayer’s these last 12 months, and the sisters and brothers on the TDCJ units she ministered to over the years and to the BS&W Cancer Oncologist and Palliative Care staff. Your kindness and love shown towards my wife during this difficult journey, is very much appreciated.

Francie would say to all who would read this, 2 Corinthians 5:17– “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.” You must be born-again (John 3:5-6)
