Great loss

I enjoyed the talks by the wall of pictures. Miss you. God bless our Muirheid Family.
Love Angela Muirheid

A Sad Time

Lee and I are so sorry for your loss. Just know she’s in a better place.
Reunited with her husband and others in the family, that have passed on.
I know it’s hard to lose your Mother, I know. Just remember You’ll be
reunited with her and others some day. Take comfort in that.
We Love You,
Michelle & Lee Dalton

A Lady to look up to!

As I reflect today on the impact Betty had on me I remember that she showed me how to be a woman of substance and grace. She was like minded with my mother and held the same standards of being a lady and a woman of God. She will be missed greatly but the legacy is rich and full of depth. I am thankful the Lord brought her in to my life as a teenager and as a woman. Much Love – Gay Lynn (Hays) Alsop
Proverbs 31:25-31
Strength and honor are her clothing;
She shall rejoice in time to come.
26 She opens her mouth with wisdom,
And on her tongue is the law of kindness.
27 She watches over the ways of her household,
And does not eat the bread of idleness.
28 Her children rise up and call her blessed;
Her husband also, and he praises her:
29 “Many daughters have done well,
But you excel them all.”
30 Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing,
But a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised.
31 Give her of the fruit of her hands,
And let her own works praise her in the gates.

Sad news

I am so very grateful that I had the privilege of briefly speaking with Mrs. Muirheid during my short visit to Cincinnati this past summer.

Mr. and Mrs. Muirheid were wonderful, kind, generous, and loving. They were both Christian role models for everyone who knew them.

I know I speak for my brother John and sister in law Mary Lou when I say that all of the John Farr family were blessed to know Mr. and Mrs. Muirheid and to have them and their entire family as dear friends during our days in Cincinnati.
