My Family ,I'm so sorry I can't be there but you guys are definitely on my mind. Aunt Odessa was my last aunt and my Mother's only sister. It's only been a few weeks since I spoke to her and she was comforting me for my loss. This has not been an easy year for our family. I appreciate talking to her and getting to know her better these last few years. I pray for you guys to have peace while saying goodbye to your Mother and Grandmother Love you guys

I have great memories of being in Mrs. Johnson english class at Minor High School. She taught us english but took the time to introduced us to cultural awareness too! Anyone that came to Mrs. Johnson class had to do his/her lesson because she was a firm disciplinary teacher. I will truly miss her at our class reunions. Praying for supernatural comfort for the family in the transition of Mrs. Johnson. Love you in Christ, Minister Ella Pryor
