Laura Patton

To all my loved ones, my family, my friends. The road I have traveled has come to an end. I started on this journey one day, the Lord was with me every step of the way. Some days I would get tired and so very weak, but I thank the Lord for taking care of me. I fought a good fight, I kept the faith, I am ready to enter the pearly white gates. As I come to the end of the road, God placed on my shoulders a beautiful white robe. I begin to smile and look around. He placed on my head a golden crown. To all my loved ones, everything is alright. My name is written in the Lamb?s Book of Life. Laura Williams Patton was born to O.W. and Roise Williams, May 22, 1930..
