In Loving Memory of Eleanor Alpha March 26, 1924 – May 19, 2016
I would like to leave you with an excerpt from the Eulogy which I shared yesterday at Eleanor’s funeral service.
I’m sure everyone has seen the movie “It’s a Wonderful Life” where the main character George Bailey wonders what the world would have been like if he had never been born.
Well, consider for a moment what the world would have been like if Eleanor had never been born. There would never have been all these wonderful children, 22 grandchildren, 26 great grandchildren and 4 great great grandchildren and all the contributions that their lives have and will make to this world.
I think of her son, Bobby’s life which God used as an instrument to lead Pastor Randy to the love of God.
Without Eleanor there would have been no Bobby.
Without Bobby, Randy may not have come to know God
And without Pastor Randy there would no Life Church
I think of her daughter, Ruthie’s life and Restoration Life for all those women in need.
Without Eleanor there would have been no Ruthie.
And without Ruthie there would be no Restoration Life Center
Without the Restoration Life Center there would be no hope for those women in need.
Just using these as examples of this ONE WONDERFUL LIFE that has left this world a better place by
A Woman Who Walked With God.
Even though I only met her two times, I have 3 beautiful grandchildren, Shiann, Zion and Jayla that I would not have if there had been no Eleanor. God had a great plan when he placed her on the earth.
