We the Wilcox Family of Eden, GA send our condolences to family of the late Claudia Dozier. 'Do not let your hearts be troubled. Believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house there are many dwelling places. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself. Earth has no sorrow that Heaven can not heal. Where there is love, there is strenght. The Lord will strengthen you in your every need. Weeping may endure for a night but joy cometh in the morning. Minister Gloria Wilcox-Jackson & Family, the daughter of Eden Missionary Baptist Church

To the "Dozier Family,"

It has been a pleasure....knowing and fellowshipping with Sis. Dozier.
Sis. Dozier was a small woman but a tall woman in Christ. Sis. Dozier was not just a piano player but her playing was a ministry.

Sis. Dozier witnessed through her music ministry. Sis. Dozier had a humbling and comforting spirit. I truly admired Sis. Dozier and she was considered a "role model" of working for the Lord is going to pay off.

May God lift your spirits. Remember the memories you shared with the loving Sis. Claudia Dozier.

May GOD comfort you all.

To the Dozier family,
You have our deepest sympathy during your time of loss. Sis Dozier was the picture of dedication and on 3rd Sundays you can always find her on her post at the piano. She was a particular inspiration to me as she continued to do the work of the Lord and did not let her age slow her down. I will always remember her dedication. We will keep you in our prayers.

I am so sorry to hear of Ms. Dozier's passing. I was at the hospital with you while my dad was in CCU. I want you to know that you are in my prayers. Your grandmother sounds like a tremendous lady full of love for her family. Loosing her will be hard on you, I know. Only our faith can carry us through this kind of difficult time. Know that you will be with her one day and that she is still loving you from above, where she is embraced in love by our Lord, Jesus Christ.
My heart is with you.
