JONNIE SIMPSON HICKS

Everlasting be her memory

I do not personally know her but I am related to the Goolsby/ McClendon / Hicks/ Foreman and Taylor I am a documented Descendant of James Madison Taylor son of Favid Taylor and Mary " Polly" Walla Walla Bigby

My prayers are with you.

Our prayers are with the Hicks family. Ms Jonni was such a gem. She would remember my sister and I and always speak when she saw us. She will be truly missed.

I met Ms Jonnie when I worked at San Roc Cay Marina in Orange Beach. She was someone who lit up a room with her smile. Several of us from those days would meet from time to time for lunch. Our San Roc Cay lunch club had so much fun listening to her stories. I am sad for her passing but glad that once again she is whole and no longer suffering. Rest in peace dear one.

All my prayers...was so gracious to all who came into here presence...much like my own mother...who was of the same era.

My condolences and prayers to the Hicks family. I did not personally know Ms. Joni, but learned of Taylor's love for her through his book and music. May you all find peace at this difficult time as you celebrate the life of your dear loved one.

I never had the pleasure of meeting Ms. Joni Hicks; I am only a fan of her grandson's, Taylor's, music. But I have a lovely photo of Ms. Joni with Taylor, taken and released when the Idol competition was winding down. I kept that photo on my desk at work, because I loved Ms. Joni just from that photo. There was strength in her beautiful face, and dignity, and pride for her grandson, and humor, too. And there was a lot of love for Taylor. How could anyone not love a woman like that? I am...

Brad, Linda, Taylor & Sean - Words cannot help the pain but please know that "Linda's Girls" from MHS are here and praying for all of you and thinking about you. We are here to do whatever you need. Love you all
