Rev. Mary Wilson, your Mom's warm smile is how I remember here. The evidence of her life of service will live on. Your parents set an atmosphere that encouraged their children to embrace their calling to ministry. This in itself is an amazing testament to who they are. Our prayers and love are with you and your entire family. We know that God will grow you all pass the pain of physical loss to a place of healing and peace with so many joyous memories.

I have wonderful memories of this woman with whom I shared so much laughter with...and I mean deep belly laughs. We talked about everything! Death has no dominion over the love I have in my heart for Mrs. Lewis. I just wonder if the angels will be able to keep up with such a deep and powerful soul? It's so cool that she gets to go be with God! He'll love her stories. It is with joy and thanksgiving that I wish you well onto your next phase! I look forward to laughing with you again! I thank God for our meeting.

You are in my thoughts.

All my best,
