Sister Cora Brewer was a true inspiration. She will be sorely missed at Camp Blessing. She was a tremendous cook and one who worked very hard to keep the Dining Hall and Tabernacle looking spotless. Thank God for every remembrance of her life. May the peace of God that passes all understanding be there for her family and friends in the days to come.
