Servrina Marie Prim

Loving Memory of Servrina Marie PrimJune 20, 1971 – July 30, 2025

On July 30, 2025, God, in His infinite love and mercy, said, "Let's stop the pain and the hurting, and give My daughter peace." And so, He called Servrina Marie Prim home to eternal rest.

Servrina was born on June 20, 1971, in Flint, Michigan, to William and Jacqueline Thornton. The youngest of four children, she was immediately recognized as a divine gift, a radiant, left-handed Queen, uniquely anointed and deeply loved.Her early years were spent in Flint before the family relocated to California. There, she began her elementary education and developed a love for music. In 1982, the Thornton family moved again, this time to Oklahoma, where Servrina graduated from Edmond Memorial High School. During her high school years, she developed a love for music and the arts, and flourished as a member of the marching band, jazz band, orchestra (playing bass clarinet), and dance team.

After graduation, Servrina was awarded a scholarship to attend Oral Roberts University, where she pursued a degree in music and played in the university orchestra. Inspired by both her artistic talents and entrepreneurial spirit, she later pursued and obtained her barber and cosmetology licenses. This decision would enable her to positively impact many lives through her skills, creativity, and compassionate presence. Despite experiencing the trauma of sexual assault while attending Oral Roberts University, Servrina turned her pain into purpose. She became a passionate advocate for survivors, even being invited by Bob Stoops to speak at the University of Oklahoma on the subjects of rape and sexual assault, using her voice to educate, empower, and inspire others.

Servrina accepted Christ and was baptized at an early age. In a meaningful and personal moment later in life, she was baptized again on June 29, 2025, by her husband Wendell Prim, Sr. She loved the Lord and loved to sing. She was an active member of several ministries, and while attending Liberty Church, she received a prophetic word that she would marry a minister and do great things for the Lord.

That prophecy was fulfilled when, on a beautiful January day, Servrina met the man who would become her husband. Ten months later, on October 3, 1992, she married Wendell Ray Prim, who later became the visionary leader who established God's Covenant Church. From their loving union came three beautiful children: Jacqueline Marie, Ashlie Nicole, and Wendell Ray Jr.

A gifted entrepreneur, Servrina opened and operated her own beauty/barber and tanning salon. Beyond her business success, she was devoted to empowering youth and families through various community initiatives, like “Make it Stop”, “ Seeing Yourself Being Yourself” and “Stomp Team”, were just some of the organizations that she started. She worked as an abstinence advocate, case manager, and tutor in multiple programs and grants, including, SAVE IT, SAVE PLUS After School, and SAVE PLUS Supplemental Reading and Math.

Despite her health challenges, Servrina never stopped giving. After being diagnosed with lupus, she became a powerful advocate for those living with autoimmune diseases. She organized lupus awareness walks, participated in local and state-wide initiatives, and encouraged others to speak up and seek support. Her voice became a beacon of hope for many suffering in silence. Her final professional pursuit was advocating for the recognition of Dr. John A. Reed, Jr., a distinguished Christian civic leader born in Kingfisher, Oklahoma, for his contributions to the state and community.

She is preceded in death by her father and mother-in-love, Ervin and Rose Prim; Sisters-in-love, Lenora Gracey, Darlene Taylor, Doris Johnson and Carlene Johnson; grandparents, David and Bernice Lott, Rebecca and Lucious Carter, and her Godparents, James and Orine Peoples.

Servrina's legacy is one of faith, strength, service, and love. She leaves behind cherished memories in the hearts of all who knew her, Wendell Prim Sr., her devoted husband of 32 years; her children, Jacqueline Marie (Nick), Ashlie, and Wendell Jr.; her beloved grandchildren, Tylar, Ashton, Ace, Gabriel, Christian, McKenzie and Noah; her parents, William and Jacqueline Thornton; siblings, Jeron Thornton of Oklahoma City, Sonya (Joey) Roberts of Columbus, Georgia, and Sharra Ervin of Oklahoma City. Servrina leaves behind a host of aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, extended relatives, her loving church family, and a special lifelong friend, Savetri Ard.

Servrina Marie Prim was a woman of grace, purpose, and enduring faith. Her light will continue to shine in the lives of those she touched. Her legacy of love and service will live on.
