I thank God that Rev. & Mrs. Biscoe came into my life when I was a teenager. Mrs. Biscoe will be missed but as born again Christians, we know we will meet again, just inside the eastern gate. God bless the Biscoes.

So sorry our Friend & Neighbor is no longer with us. She was such a nice & caring person. Rarely asked for anything, but gave us so much in the 13 years we've lived across the street from the Biscoe's.

She was there as Joe married us in our home. Through the deaths of our family members, the birth of our Daughter & the childhood our our Son. She never missed a Birthday party, countless Christmases and Welborn Church events.

She was ageless & a very sweet woman. Always thought of others first. I pray for Joe's strength & well being at this difficult time. Our thoughts are with the family & know that you did all that you could do for your Mom. She appreciated every moment with you.
