Frieda, The life you led surely did speak for you. You were an amazing woman with so much love and caring for others. You fought a very hard battle to keep you here with us but your passed loved ones knew when you had fought hard enough. There will be so much joy in Heaven when you get there. So many family members and friends waiting at the pearly gates for you - You will be a beautiful angel and I can not wait to see you again. Love you and will see you soon. Your Aunt Essie

Although I did not have the pleasure of meeting Ms. Wimbush, I often heard stories of how amazing she was. Lois, affectionately known to us as O or Ms. O, often shared snippets of their conversations and experiences over the years. It was abundantly clear that Ms. Wimbush was one of only a few people that could keep O in line but most importantly that their friendship was rooted in lots of love and loyalty. I will whisper a quiet prayer each time I see O decked out in her Cowboys (not Redskins) attire. Knowing that Ms. Wimbush will be missed by many, it is my hope that everyone she touched will soon find comfort in her passing.
With Sympathy,
