Thoughts and Prayers to each of you during this difficult time...
Momma, oh the things I wish I could say to you now. How I long to sit with you around the fire and laugh and sing! How I long to sit on the front porch swing as we listen to the rain and talk about our day! The memories we made will never go away! How I wish you had stayed, but you're in a better place. I've never been more homesick than I am now! I miss your loving smile and how you would teach me how to stand for my God, to never ever back down! How long must I wait to see you?! Any length of time seems too long! I will keep your legacy going forever in my heart! You will never be forgotten but forever honored all my days! You showed me how to love and serve others in so many ways! Whatever will I do without you?! My life seems but a loss. But I know if you were here you'd tell me "my daughter, don't grieve! For I reached the gateway of heaven and soon you will see me once again face to face, like never before! We'll cook and sing and worship with our Lord Jesus forevermore!" Momma, wait for me at those gates! I know I have a job here on earth, and I promise to stay true to my God and my family and to your family too! I love you more than anything and miss you just the same! I'll see you very soon! I can't wait for that day! - your daughter
What can I say that I have not said to her in the past? I know who I was in her life and she knew who she was in mine. We love her and Merle and the boys, we are family. Oh, how I will miss you my friend! I'll never quit, I'll never give in the God I serve He always wins!!
My heart is saddened and overjoyed. I am sad knowing that those here on earth will miss you so very much, but happy knowing your soul is where it longed to be. I hope your family can take comfort remembering all the wonderful times they had with you and hope knowing they will one day see you again.

Pastor Abrams and Family,
We were so saddened to hear about Sis. Abrams. Our prayers are with you during this difficult time. She will be forever in our hearts. Many times she prayed for our family and I didn't get to tell her the prayers she prayed had come to pass. She always had a smile, always had encouraging words and one of the most beautiful ladies in Christ that we knew.

I will always remember her as a person who loved GOD and her family and friends.
I will also remember the Christmas party's at their house when we were young.
The slumber party's , the young people going to her house for volleyball, the grill outs just family and good friends. She will be missed by all.
Paula, I remember you playing and singing at a church we were members of several years ago. How annointed you were. I've read the comments and you'd not believe how much the church folks loved you! I wish you could have stayed here on earth longer, but God knows best. Bro. Merle and family, You've got more to go to Heaven for! We love you.

A beautiful woman inside and out. The world's loss is Heaven's great gain. My thoughts are with Merle, J.B. Gade, the Noble and Abrams families.
We hold both the Abrams and Noble families to be so dear to our hearts as through the years we have fellowshipped and spent such good times together. Merle and Paula seem like our children! Oh how we will miss Paula's beautiful presence! Our hearts are so sad to know she will not be with us, but we rejoice in knowing that she is in His presence...never to feel pain again.
We will never forget being with Paula the last time as her voice was lifted in song and praise to the Lord along with a room full of her aunts and uncles. What a precious memory to hold onto!! Our visits to the house will be different now, but still good and we will draw strength from one another as we laugh and cry together, knowing...as we all sang together on our last visit..."He's made the good times outnumber the bad...He's been the best friend that I ever had. I just want to thank you Lord...thank you Lord!"
Beacher, Della, Merle, JB and Gade...and all the family...WE LOVE YOU!
Ron and Edna Wagers
