13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
In pray for the family during this time,
Love, Anthony & Paula

My dear sweet sister Soror LaNita Dixon Freeman. I will miss you, your kindness, your boldness, you stopping by the house to pickup money or dropping something off for the sorority. You did your job as treasurer well. A dedicated Soror and friend. I will miss your phone calls, but most of all how you enjoyed Eta Kids. It was a joy working on the committee with you. I was looking forward to us going to Tinker Bar. Gone too soon. I wished we had more time together. LaNita, take your rest. Your journey here on earth is finished. God said… Enter into the gates of salvation my child. Fair winds… and following seas. I love you and I miss you with my whole heart. Until we meet again. You left a footprint 👣 across our heart 💕.
