Grandma was a true fighter to the end. Grandma has always bwwn MY inspiration. She truly knew the value of haoldingon to God's unchanging hand. She has left a part of her in all of our lives that she touched! Whenver I was down she was able to find a way to lift me up. She did a spectaular job raising all of her kids, grandkids and great grandkids and she never complained. Grandma will truly be missed by us all. We will love you forever!

To The Lyons & McBride Family: Mrs. Lyons was surely an angel sent from God. She was such a mentor to me at church & when we will meet on Sunday afternoons singing for the Lord. I know she is singing in Heaven Now. May you find peace that she lived a Godly life, always had a beautiful smile for everyone. With Love, N. J. Broadie, Triumphant Baptist Church
