THANK YOU NOTE

Please accept my sincere appreciation for the kindness shown during the death of my husband, Ricky Myers. Wilkesboro Baptist is made up of God’s people who truly care and show their love and support during good times as well as bad. Ricky was a very unique man and anyone who never got to know him missed out on a genuinely wonderful spirit. Please keep our family in your prayers. —Eva Adams-Myers
