I had the privilege of working with Von for some 3 years with her property valuation work in Macon County. She was kind, honest, funny and could always be relied upon to complete well, the work tasks that we shared. She cared so much for her family, always talking about her children, being proud of them and wanting them to be the best that they could be. But most importantly Von loved her Lord and had a strong faith in Him. She was a blessing to us all and will be greatly missed.

Please accept my sincere condolences for your loss. Many have found true comfort in the pages of God's word the Bible (2 Corinthians 1:3, 4). In God's word we find the promise that we can be reunited with our loved ones (John 5:28,29; Acts 24:15). It is truly comforting to know that this beautiful provision is real and based on God's Promise, (Titus 1:2). Please allow this sincere note to comfort you during this difficult time and know that you are in our prayers...

I didn't have the pleasure of knowing Von but only 8 months, but in that time she was nothing but a kind and helpful person to me. When I called on her she was there for me. She will truly be miss. May the family look to the Lord for which your health and strength cometh.
