To Coach Henry and The Boys,

God took a special angel when he took Aunt Tama. She will be greatly missed by all. I always remember her calling moms to see if I was there so that I could walk down the road to either pick up or drop off a package.

She will be missed. God bless each of you.

Cousin Tama will surely be missed. I will always remember when I was a little girl she loved for me to ride my bike over there and sit and talk in the kitchen. Before I would leave Cousin Leroy or Cousin Tama would give me butterscotch candy (one of my favorites) for the short bike ride home. I will really miss my times with her.
Love, Shannon

Uncle Leory and Coach Henry,

Aunt Tama was a kind, gentle woman. Always loved my earrings.

May there be comfort in knowing that the Lord has prepared a place for each of us in His Kingdom and that He will in His time take us home to be with Him.

The Lord is your Shepherd and He will comfort you.
