Not sure what to say?

I was sad to hear of Tinkey's passing June. She was a wonderful Christian example and had the gift of encouragement. She was such a blessing to my family and me. From reading the other acknowledgments
she brought value to many lives. I'm praying that God will give you comfort in your time of bereavement.

Such a pleasure to meet anytime; always the same friendly, upbeat, smiling lady who made you feel she was so happy to be in your presence. Tinkey was a rare gem, a strong woman and the best example of Christian love. May precious memories ease your loss.

Tinkey was one of the first to welcome my family to the Elkin-Jonesville area back in 1982. She was so kind to my little girls when we shopped downtown in Elkin. We ended up attending the Jonesvile First UMC mainly because she said her church "needed us". But we were the ones blessed by knowing her. She always sang, "His Eye is on the Sparrow" with such honesty and deep conviction that no one could doubt her faith. Thanks for mothering us. We love you Tink and we'll see you after while!

Remember how we use to talk and you would say Wonder why God would take me last? I told you that he had a reason but this just wasn't clear right now. I now know the reason. You of all the Fishers had that Love that was in the Bible. Unconditional Love for everyone. You loved everyone in town, family and every where else.Although we are going to miss you- right now you are the honored one in Paradise with Jesus. Many others passed the same day but only you had that Love God wanted the world...

She was such a sweet lady Thoughts and Prayers for all p

June, Thanks so very much for calling to let me know of Tink's passing. She was a special lady in my life and was one of the many Fisher kin who we loved all our lives. We will be with you in spirit on Monday and will remember Tink all our lives. Tom Fisher

Dear June ~ Our hearts and prayers are with you and your family as you celebrate the life of your mother. I know she was cherished by each of you and all who knew her. A life well lived.

Dear June and family, My heart is so sad for you all but not for sweet Tinkey. She is walking in sight she has seen her Savior. What a gift she was to me and my family. She was the sweetest, kindness, and so beautiful inside and out. She had the biggest heart and loved everybody. My last visit was a while ago but I loved every minute and every time I stood up to leave she had just one more story to tell. And she didn't leave out one thing. I always loved hearing her stories. I loved growing...

My deepest sympathy to each family member. I loved this lady she was a joy to be around ,and I enjoyed her singing. I Love you June ,May God bless an keep you in his loving arms.
