To the entire Anderson family, we send our love, condolences and our prayers. We remember Mr. Anderson's resourcefulness and work ethic. Hard work was the bread of life for Oveal and Regina, as evidenced by what they achieved together. They were "fully satisfied," as the proverb states. "The lazy person has his cravings, yet he has nothing, But the diligent one will be fully satisfied." Their example is a lesson learned to their children and grand children.
The loss of a loved one brings sorrow to those they leave behind, yet, Jesus assured us that our sadness would be short-lived when he said: “Most truly I say to you, the hour is coming, and it is now, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who have paid attention will live. For just as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted also to the Son to have life in himself. And he has given him authority to do judging, because he is the Son of man. 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..." John 5:28, 29.
It gives us comfor to know that the next voice Oveal Anderson, and all those in "the memorial tombs" will hear is that of Jesus Christ calling his sheep by name! "He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out." John 10:3
