Words cannot express the love Auntie showed me over the years. I pray that I am an effective, loving, kind, Aunt as she was and that my nieces and nephews glean from the Wisdom of God he has imparted into my life. Auntie certainly had great wisdom, revelation and a great sense of humor. We would laugh. She looked out for me as if I was apart of her family. The digits to her home phone and address are inscribed in my heart. As a Missionary, she was the one to have Mt. Vernon bless my Evangelistic work in times past. When I taught school as a young lady, she and Debra, had Cousins Robert and Carrie, board me.
And yes, I can go on and on but you get the drift. I know without a shadow of doubt that Camilla Goolsby is in heaven. One day when I get about 100 in years, I will meet and see her there. What a privilege that she has now become apart of God's army and our great cloud of witnessing. Forever in my heart.
