Norman Dickerson and the Carter Family

There is a sacredness in tears, They are not the mark of weakness, but of power, They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are the messengers of overwhelming grief,of deep contrition, and of unspeakable love.
By:Washington Irving.

With deepest Sympathy

I was very saddened by the "Homegoing" of Doretha. She was a great friend and sister in the Lord. Family, please know that I pray for the Holy Spirit to comfort you and give you peace; knowing that you will meet again.
Your Sister in Christ,

To the Family:

Aunt Doretha was the strongest woman of Faith that I have ever known. I had the honor of not just hearing about her faith, but over the years, I witnessed her unmovable faith in the face of much adversity. I thank her for showing me what faith looks like; and because of that faith she will never ever be forgotten. I love you family, Jennifer (Spann)
