Eugenia was a dear friend of our family and for years, she was a frequent guest at our Sunday dinners after church. It’s hard to remember her without her bright smile and her infectious laughter. She loved her Savior, and she was always willing to help people when she could.
She was a fixture in the choir, and her absence there will be felt both by her fellow choir members and the congregation who will miss seeing her there in her usual place. We will miss her, but we can rejoice that her suffering has ended and she is now in the physical presence of her Lord.
