We were shocked and incredibly sad to hear of Ms. Vanessa’s passing. She and Mr. Doug have been such kind and generous neighbors since they moved to Turkey Creek. My son and I love picking peaches from their peach tree and chatting with them when we go for our walks. Sending our sincere condolences to Mr. Doug and his family.
Much love,
Felipe, Shannon, and Harry Flores

The Thomas family- we knew Arnold’s Mother for years. He grew up where my dad did. Then the Thomas family worshipped with us in Peoria! Doug & David grew up there. Doug attended FC where he met Vanessa. We met up again at Ellettsville Church in Indiana.. wasn’t long till they moved. Then saw Paul Thomas in Pekin, Illinois where the Curry’s grew up. Got to know Paul the Preacher. Vanessa seemed very dedicated to those 4 grand babies. They brought her much joy. I hope they all have precious memories of her.

Our deepest condolences for Doug and his children on the loss of their mother/wife.
She will be missed by all who loved her. She has made the journey home to the Lord.
