My family Bob, Diana, me & my sis Shelly went to Bro. McNeelys church in Mesquite Tx years ago & I just loved this family! Bro McNeely was an awesome preacher & Sis. McNeely such a Godly lady. Sharla was a beautiful young lady who loved the Lord & I loved to hear her & Bubba sing together! I am so sorry for y’all’s loss & I am praying for your family🙏🏼 May the Lord wrap his arms around your family in comfort. I am so blessed to have been with this family!!
Sharla Kay was my niece and I loved her. Had not gotten to see her much for several years. That’s one of the saddest parts of families breaking up from death or divorce. I have the recording s she and tommy made and I will cherish them Gwen and I went through high school together. She was loved by everyone and was a joy to be around.
There is mno pain like the pain of losing a child. My Dona has been gone for 6 years. It still hurts so bad. I wish you and tommy would come for a visit. I live in San Marcos texsssdont like it much but I’m thankful to be warm and dry. I will include my phone number and say bye for now
Know you have my love and concern
