There will NEVER be another Andy Murphy! Her smile, energetic and contagious personality and zeal for God will live on forever in my heart and mind. She will truly be missed. I know she is getting jiggy with it for Jesus!!! Praise on Andy. We love and miss you dearly.

Psalms 150 speaks of praising the Lord. That Psalm to me speaks of Andy. No rock would ever cry out for her. She praised the Lord even when no one else would. I can see her now danicing and singing for Jesus! Praise on dear Andy,praise on. Lauren Mayo (FBCEE)

Cee, she was my sister (in every meaning of the word sister and family), my best friend, and my daughter's Aunt. She was a loving, caring, and most giving person. Like a star shinning sooo bright in the night, day light comes...then it's gone....Cee was gone to soon. Words can express what a wonderful person she is...It's hard for me to think of her not being there. She loved being involved in the choir, praise dance, working out (we had some fun zumba workouts), being there for not only myself when I needed to talk (girl talk), or spiritual guidance, but she was one of the sparks that glee in my daughter's eyes...Aleysia. She loves her Aunt so much and sometimes my daughter seems to be more like her Aunt Cee, then her mommy (lol). Like a shinning star,..Gone to soon...I could go on about what a wonderful christian woman my sister was, all her good deeds, how I love her so, and will miss her forever...but I will say this: She has left this world too soon, but she is my shinning star forever ...I love you Kurt and Dre....God give you strength.. Aleysia and I will always be there. Golden

Murph and Andre,

There are no words that can describe this kind of loss. Just know Andriaelle walks proudly among the angels. She will show you and Andre the way. Her spirit is with you always. I am keeping you close in my thoughts and prayers. May God bring you peace and comfort in the difficult days that lie ahead.

I am just a phone call away if you and Andre need anything.
Love & prayers,

Proverbs 31 talks about a woman that is far more than just a mother or a wife. It talks about a woman that is faithful and serves God with all her heart, mind, and soul. It talks about a woman that respects her husband and teaches her son and other children the ways of her Father in heaven. To her husband she does him good all the days of her life, is trustworthy, and a helpmate. To her son and god children she disciplines them with care and wisdom and trains them in the way they should go. It talks about a woman that takes care of others and ensures that they are healthy while still taking care of herself. A woman that is financially wise and also works humbly to complete task. A woman that opens her home to others and welcome them just as if they were her own. A woman that uses her time wisely and makes all appointments, practices, and meetings and not spend it on things not pleasing to God. This woman also knows God and the value, beauty, and worth he has given her and her unselfishness to use that beauty to bring the best and the beauty out of others. That woman I just described was Andy Murphy. She was the light of the New Birth Praise Dance Ministry, the Homeless Ministry, and the Choir. Her presence was always one that would bring a smile to my face even after a long days work. Know that she is missed, but her legacy and memory will live on through every movement of dance, every plate that we prepare and every song that is heard. Love you Andy!

Remember

Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.

Kurt and Family, I am truly thankful that you allowed me to share a special friendship with Andi. She was my sister in Christ and a great person. I miss my friend and feel your pain. Be encouraged and blessed in the LORD. Let the peace of the LORD be your strength in this season. She is with the LORD and at peace. Her spirit lives forever.
