A Time Of Peace Viletta quietly and peacefully slipped away in her sleep. She would not wish for us to continue to grieve, but rather, take comfort in knowing she is at peace and resting in the arms of our “Heavenly Father.” We know “To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord”. 2 Corinthians 5:8 A Time Of Tribute (Family) Viletta, the Master has called and you are much better. Until we meet again in the Spirit, we will always carry your love and your legacy in our hearts forever. God chose a Beautiful Pink Rose from His garden. He knew you were tiring as you journeyed and rewarded you with eternal rest. This is Not goodbye; just so long. Rest in Peace until we are all united again.
