I am sadden in the natural at the passing of Sister Shirley A. Higgins because she was such a great woman of God. She was a great daughter, sister, mother of 3 beautiful children, grandchildren and I am sure she was a great, great-grandmother. Spiritually, we know that she is with the Lord and this is what gives us comfort and hope. My love and prayers are with you all. Sister Gail P. Miller and family!
