To the family of Miss Maria,
My son, Ryan, and Granddaughters, Melanie, Natalie, and Sydney Thompson express our deepest sympathy.
Proverbs 31 Vs 10-31 sums up the life Miss Maria lived. She lived fearing God, trustworthiness, diligence, kindness, wisdom in speech and song, and being a nurturing, resourceful, and supportive partner. She managed her household with care, and love.
I always enjoyed her singing GOD IS in the choir at Sharon Baptist Church.

There is always comfort in the memories you share with a loved one. But the ultimate comfort is the physical and emotional closeness. Betty, I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your dear mother, may she rest in peace.
