Maugie,

Your presence in my life inspired me to bring positivity and joy to others. You always led by example. I would hear stories of all the people you've helped and I've seen the influence you've had on my own mother, aunt, cousins and all of our family members. I feel so blessed that I was able to experience the love that you shared your entire life. Thank you. I love you and you will always be missed. Sending prayers and lots of love to you Ronnie, Bebe, Christina and the rest of the family.

Dear Ronnie and BeBe,

I wanted you to know I am thinking about you and praying for you during this difficult time. Maude was such a devoted mother and caregiver. I remember most her laugh. She truly knew what was most important in life. Her love for you both is immeasurable! She set the example on how to be a strong woman. May the loving memories you have comfort you and give your strength. She always prepared you for the time that she would not be with you in body, but she will always be with you in heart. You will hear her words guiding you each day, just listen a those words from the heart.
I loved Maude just like a mother and appreciate how she treated me like her own. Time will never change that.
Love and Sympathy
In friendship

I miss you so much!! I never thought of you leaving us so soon. I feel robbed because I thought we would have a little more time to talk and laugh about our love for kids, for me to try and fix your computer, Skype, and watch old movies together. I had hoped one day you would even get to see where I live now and see how things had worked our for me. You were the staple of my life Grandma! Thanks for all your love and help!! I hope you knew how much I loved you! May our loving God Jehovah remember your kind works!

To all those who shared my love for her, please keep these promises from God in mind John 5:28,29 "the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out". Our love ones will be resurrected not to a world like this but the one described in Psalms 37:11 "meek ones themselves will possess the earth,
And they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace." He gives us so many beautiful promises here are a few more you can look up in your own Bible. Revelation 21:3,4 Isaiah 65:21-24.

Dear Ronnie & Bebe and Family of Maude:

I was so sorry to hear that Maude had taken ill so suddenly and then our Lord called her. I will always remember when she and uncle Lamar got married and became part of the Jenkins family. Maude was a kind and giving person alway willing to take time and listen and give advice. I will miss talking with her and seeing her on my visits to Columbus. May our Lord wrap his arms around your entire family and give you the strenght and comfort during this difficult time.
