To Lillie and the "Girls":
My love and prayers are with you at this very sad time.
Mrs. Kent was a wonderful person to me and my family. She was a mentor for life's challenges as well as for the A.M.E Church. We met at Saint Luke in Wilson and became very close because of her gentle but firm handling of everything. I love her and I'll miss her although we were separated by miles these last few years. She is resting peacefully in the arms of our Savior.
Love, Beverly
