Myrt was one of the kindest people I have met. She loved her family and was simply a pleasure for anyone who met her. She would go the extra mile to help anyone out. She was a blessing to my sons life and all she did for him while growing up being best friends with Andy. My condolences to Andy and Bubba.
Praying for the family Lynn & Isaac

I want to send my deepest sympathy to the family of Myrtleleen Mosley Perry. The bible tells us we can gain comfort from God, even during times of sorrow. We pray to our heavenly father for help to cope with the sorrow felt from the death of a loved one. By prayer and supplication, let your petitions be made known to God; and the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your mental powers by means of Christ Jesus. Philippians 46 May you find comfort by relying on our heavenly father and learning more about the blessings of God’s kingdom. Local ministry volunteer
