A tribute to LaVerne

A special lady passed on to glory this week. Her name was LaVerne Fields, and what a servant she was! Each week, even after her illness was advance, she sat on her walker, oxygen bottle at her side, and greeted people in the foyer at church. She was in charge of coffee and doughnuts the last couple of years. But really, she was there giving us all an example of servanthood. She even traveled to Ridgecrest, North Carolina, last summer to learn more. She was a faithful patron of the church library, and read almost every book in there. I know when she died on Tuesday, her Lord was there to greet her and say, "Well done, good and faithful servant!"
She will be remembered!
