Mrs. Jessie ,
A "virtuous woman "who always stands out to me. She is valuable and unbreakable. She knows her worth. She is "trustworthy and "good". Her goodness never wore off. She is good to everyone . She is hardworking. Mrs. Jessie was never a slacker, she is productive. She is provisional, going to lengths to find the best for the family and keeping everyone covered. She is a homemaker, dedicated to providing comfort at her home.
She keeps the house in good order with routine . Mrs. Jessie is strong and content and always sees the big picture. Thank God that I was blessed to meet this God Fearing woman, she is a rare grandmother figure. Mrs. Jessie is a humble woman who has a heart that bleeds kindness. I am thankful that I have so many memories of her inspiration that will remain close to my heart forever. Rest in Peace . We thank you for all the Love.

Melvin and Family,
It is a honor having known your mother. Please accept our heartfelt condolences.
Although no words can take away, the sorrow that you bare,
May it be comforting to you to know, that others care.
We are not able to be with you for Mrs. Jessie's home-going celebration, but, we are with you in spirit.

Tears Turn to Joy
5)They that sow in tears
shall reap with shouts
of Joy
6)He that goeth forth and
weepeth, bearing precious
seed, shall doubtless come
again with rejoicing,
bringing his sheaves with
him.
