Not sure what to say?

Still miss you.

TO the family of my dear friend may God strengthen you in this trying time. Mary and I met during our teenage days and remained great friends.She was a person you enjoyed right away. I will remember her always may she rest in the bosom of our Lord.

Sheri & Ben, Carolyn & Henry, & family,

Your mother is at peace. Think of the good times and smile. For comfort, read Ecclesiates 3:1-15,17,19,20,22. Your mother and I met when I was a rookie walking the downtown beat wayyy back in the day, where we had a few conversations and laughs, which continued through the years. May The Creator bring you peace during this time.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

We send our heartfelt sympathy and we are praying for all of you.

My deepest condolences to "Mae Mae's" family. May she rest in peace and may God give you great comfort as you mourn her transition. Gwen, Toni, Sheri and Vonda, please know that she's safe in God's arms now and that she loved you dearly. No more pain, just peace. Love, Felicia Middlebrooks Hill

My deepest sympathy to the family. Mary and I were friends for many, many years. I knew her to be a loving mother. Girls, you were her life. As were her nieces and nephews. She was a very loving daughter, sister, cousin, niece, classmate and friend. She will be missed by all that knew and loved her. Family may The Lord, send in the Comforter to you. Hold on to the memories , for she is a memorable lady. May GOD bless and keep you.

Sorry to read of Mary's passing. I always enjoyed our little talk sessions in the records division of the GPD . Ever pleasant, mild mannered, and enjoyable to visit.

SHERRI sorry to hear of the passing of your beloved Mother. Praying with you and family always remember that a Mother's love is forever. Mary knew God for herself and will now receive what God promised Eternal life.
