Meeka,
Your Mom can rest in peace now. She wouldn't have the comfort in releasing herself in the hands of the Lord without knowing that her only daughter would be joining her at the Lords giving time. She informed me of that before her departure. Even though its a sad time, we all can rejoice in knowing that the Lord answered her strongest request of him before this happend. Spread the word about Gods wisdom, as it surpasses our understanding, but leaves behind evidence of his presence. Derrick

Big Meeka, remember she may be gone physically but truly she still lives through Tasia. Even though I am far in distance, I am still just a phone call away. Keep your head up and keep faith. Ms. Dale, does not have to suffer anymore. She is at peace and is watching you as we speak.

Dear Family:

Please accept my most sincere condolences on the loss of Addie. I met her in school, when we were teenagers. She was a beautiful person. I have seen her once or twice since we became adults. I shall always hold her fondly in my heart and memories. She shall be missed. But, we know--we SHALL see her again.

Sincerely,
Connie Mathis-Berhe`

I have known Addie for a long time, we shared thoughts about our families as well as simple things like our vehicles. We used to have nice little conversations about all sorts of things from children to the latest news about our nation. Addie was a quiet lady with a very caring nature. She always spoke of her daughter and her grand babies...she loved them so. Addie Carmichael will be missed. God Bless her lovely family.

To Tomeka and children,
I know it seems so unreal, but think of it like this:The master Gardener was looking for the best rose to beautify heaven with;therefore He looked amongst those here on Earth and decided to pluck mom and granny. Now heaven is so radiant and more beautiful because, Ms. Addie is there. Praying your strength and you are in our prayers.

Addie and I shared lunch together at Yates Elementary School, years ago. We often talked about our childhood days and growing up in C.O.G.I.C. I was truly taken aback when I saw her picture in the Obituary column. Laughing always made her cry. She will be sadly missed, yet memories will not fade. She's in god's care now. R.I.P.
