I remember Mr Stanley and Mrs. Mary when I was a child. They each were the salt of the earth; icons of Greater Liberty Baptist Church; Pillars of the community (East End) and the friend of our family. May God bless the Garrett family during this moment of sorrow. Weeping endures the night; but Joy comes in the morning.
Sincerely!!
