I have so many memories of my aunt. Her tough ways and loving ways were like no other. You were a piece of our puzzle that is gone but never forgotten. There are no real words that can describe this families loss. I will miss you forever and love you for eternity.

My great grandma was the heart of our family. She loved bringing us all together, whether it was taking everyone bowling or cooking something warm and simple. I’ll always remember that she made me my very first bowl of cream of wheat — a small act that showed her big heart. She taught us that love is found in the little moments, and those memories will stay with me forever.

I spent a lot of time with Mrs. Clarissa, I enjoyed Every moment with her. I was her morning Caregiver; She was Pure Joy.
I miss her already.
I Pray that her Family has peace in the knowledge that there is NO more pain for her.
The last days were sad, to see. I think she was glad to go & see the Lord & her Husband & her Children that went before her.
Phillip you were an Awesome Son. I Pray that you are comforted knowing you did all you could for your Mother.
Pat you...

Ms. Hale was a steady, caring presence in our neighborhood—someone who truly lived the words “It takes a village to raise a child.” She kept a watchful eye on me growing up, and her quiet support made a lasting impact.
Her kindness and wisdom helped shape the community around her, and I’m grateful for the lessons she passed on. Her grandson and I were the best of friends, and through him, I saw just how deeply she cared.
She’ll be remembered with love and respect.

Clarissa and Albert were the best neighbors you could have. They were both there for me in good times and in times not so good. Clarissa was a “ no nonsense “ lady! If you asked for her advice on anything she would give you a personal experience that usually had me laughing but I always got the point. I love Claire and all the “back porch” conversations we shared over the years! May Jehovah remember her in the resurrection.
