May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. Even tho i didn't get to know Ms. Odom, i grew closer to her son Harold and Daughter in-Law Helen, who are like my own family. Harold thanks for allowing me to call you my Big brother. In Christ we are all family, you always said good things about your mother when-ever i was around, and she will forever be missed, but always in our heart and prayers. So i say to the entire Odom family, Keep the faith, and God Bless You All....

Cousins, Dad, Mom and our entire family want you to know you are in my deepest thoughts and prayers. Aunt "Janie" is now at rest. I know you have the realization that death is only a passage to eternity, and if in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. The blessings of the Lord be upon you, I bless you in the name of the Lord. Much love from the Family.
