Gracie Louise Frazier Brown

Dear Family & Friends,

Hello everyone! If you are reading this letter, that means that Gracie Louise Frazier Brown is no longer with us. She has asked me to announce to everyone about her departure, and how wonderful it is! She has been invited by Jesus Chris to attend the most amazing feast you and I could ever dream of. Only this is not a dream! This invitation was a once in a lifetime offer she could not refuse. So, when He held out His hand, she eagerly took it. He took her on a phenomenal flight to the third heaven, where she was greeted by an astounding gate made of pearl. It as so high, she could barely see the top. As the gate opened, she was greeted by vivid colors, many that she had never seen before. At once, she heard the most breath-taking singing her ears had ever heard! She looked to her left, then to her right, then up, and all around... Angels were standing right before her very eyes singing wth voices so amazing, she could never find the word to describe. As she began to walk hand in hand with Jesus, she looked down and saw their reflections in what appeared to be a golden street, that was so brilliant, it looked like a sea of glass.
Then to her surprise she was greeted by an overwhelming multitude of family and friends that had left with Jesus on this same trip; some, not so long ago, others she had not seen in years! Jesus, personally took her on a tour of His Kingdom... He walked with her down a delightful path, lined with flowers. A the end of this path she observed a beautiful mansion, surrounded by mountains, and trees. Jesus invited her inside. That is when, to her astonishment, He said this is My gift to you, My lovely daughter. After He presented her with her palace that He personally built with His own, nail pierced hands, He dressed her in a fine, white linen gown, and took her out to dinner. She sat at a table that stretched out for miles. She could not see the end of this table! It had exquisite, fine, white china at every place setting. There were silver candelabras flickering golden light all down the length of the table! Oh, this is heavenly, she thought. Jesus pulled out a chair for her, and kindly motioned with His hand for her to sit.
Then, He sat right next Her, at the head of the table! She began to gaze around, and she saw in every chair sat all her loved ones that she has been earnestly wanting to see, and has been missing for so long. There sat my brother John, and my daddy, Frank! They were seated by her side. Along with them were grandma Ruby, papa Sherman, papa Nick, grandma Ann, Aunt Litzy, uncle Freeman, Shirley, Sarah, Ed, Odell, Ronnie, and everyone else that had taken this journey before her. She felt such joy, she never wanted to leave! That is why I am delivering you this joyful message from my mother, letting everyone know that she has moved in with Jesus. She wil not be back. However, you all are also invited!! I can not say when you get to go on this same journey, but I can tell you that it is guaranteed that everyone reading this letter gets to go, but there is a catch... You must do as Gracie did, and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord, and Savior before you get to live with Jesus for all eternity in His Kingdom. He asks that everyone attend!
