To Pete and Schwann,
I am sorry to hear of the passing of your mother. She was an angel to me when I was a teenager into becoming a woman. While a member of Zion Baptist Church-Doraville, under the pastorate of Rev. D.A. Dixon, I would always look forward to her guidance during the Hopewell Association meetings. She was such a jewel and I know you will miss her! (404) 246-1444

To the entire Bailey Family,
Whenever I visited, Ms. Annie treated me like I was one of her own, whether that meant fussing at me or telling me to go get her some water. I know you all miss her and while I can't take away the pain, I can ask God to help you bear it. May God continue to richly and abundantly bless each one of you.

Pete and the rest of the Bailey family:
I have very fond memories of your very gracious and lady-like Mother and how your parents raised you as I was raised, in the church. Whenever you would visit Zion Baptist in Doraville, or whenever we convened at the Baptist Congress meetings, it was such a delight to my sister, Donna, and me to see the Baileys.
God Bless each of you and we will keep you uplifted in prayer.
