Larry Barnes says
My thoughts and prayers go out to all the members of Almeadas family. I spent many years growing up being in and out of Earnest and Almeadas house. I always thought of them as my second family. I will always remember all the meals I ate with them at their table. Almeada and Ernest always welcomed me into their home, whitch says a lot seeing as how I was just a creek bum always hanging around. I know in my heart that Almeada is in Heaven now with Earnest. Almeada was a truly firm believer in the Lord, and always cared very much about other people. I will miss her , but know that she went to a good place. Part of her lives on in all her family, and all the peoples lives she touched.
Diane (Rath) Hewett says

Sincerely, Diane and Family

My sincere condolences to the family of Almeada Fogle. At this time of sorrow, we want to be comforted by the sure hope that Bible gives for those have died. Jesus words at John 5:28, 29 tell us “do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out. Also at Acts 24:15 we are told that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous.” I hope you are comforted by Bible promises (John 17:3).
J.D. and Mary Alice Murnion says
