Nellie wishes to extend sincere thanks to the Doctors, Nurses and staff at the Concordia Hospital, with special thanks to Chaplain Larry. "I will hold and cherish your special love for me in my heart always. I will do some of those special things we talked about." Your soul mate, Nellie (Bum). The Lord Is My Shepherd I shall not want He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His names sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surley goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord Forever. The Twenty Third Psalm GREEN ACRES FUNERAL CHAPEL 222-3241
