Small, of whom she loved more than love itself, and after her passing, a part of Mrs. Winfield went along, and finally her joy has been restored at their meeting bye and bye.

I send my sympathy and my love to the family especially Bruce. I have known Ms Luvinia since I was a little girl. she used to come to my grandmothers house and make coins come out of my ear, it was a magic trick she would show me. She was a very sweet and respectful woman. She will be greatly missed. I love you all. Hold your head up and know that God is in control.
