Lenwood loved cooking, watching old western movies, playing dominoes and gardening was his favorite past time. When his health began to fail him, he moved to a nursing home in Okemah, Oklahoma.

On April 27, 2020, an angel appeared and called his name and said, “You must hurry, no time to waste, no time to say goodbye, no ore tears, no more pain, your place is ready in heaven far above, you have to leave, all your dear ones behind.”

When I walked through those heavenly gates, I felt so much at home. God looked down and smiled at me from His Great Golden throne and said, “This is eternity and all I have promised you.”
