William Bert Kinsey

Yesterday I attended a memorial service for my younger brother, who passed away May 24, 2010. His four daughters did a wonderful job with pictures, the obituary, and the eulogy. Crystie, Bert's oldest daughter read the eulogy that she wrote and it was beautiful. She was so strong as she stood there and read what she had written. I know she was unsure of whether she could do it or not because we had talked about it. I told her to pray and ask God for the strength, and that I would say a prayer for her as well. Crystie wrote things about her Daddy that portrayed only what the family would know. Bert also had six step-children that honored him with their respect and love. Yesterday was a day of roller coaster emotions, so sad to lose a brother, and glad to see the people that were there to honor his memory. Bert, we love you and we miss you. May you rest in peace in the company of our parents, our sister, Mary Beth; our brother, Walton; our brother-in-law, Howard; and our niece, Lynn. Heaven is a little more beautiful today.
