Vennie Waylon Hanna

“Death comes like the birth of a baby, when it’s time, it’s time – birth, death, sleep healing; each comes in its own time – whatever comes, we can trust that we are in the hands of a God who loves us. So, that time came for Vennie Waylon Hanna, when he flew away with angels on Wednesday, May 18, 2022, at 11:03 AM, at McLeod Regional Medical Center, Florence.
