To: Taylor, Elnora and the entire family.



Sis. Glover was an inspiration in my life as well as so many others. I thank God for the wisdom she shared with me over the years. Your family is in my prayers. The Greater Little Zion congregation will truly miss her. We are so grateful because she was a faithful member for over 60 years. She has left a legacy to Zion that will not be forgotten.

Mr. Taylor August & Family



No matter how we prepare for this hour, we are never ready for it. My prayer is that God will continue to see you through this and comfort your heart. For "some" relief and consolation cherish the memories of the beautiful relationship you had with your mother and thank God for the time He blessed you both with. Obviously, she has finished all God wanted her to do here on this side and He needed her more in His Kingdom!



Soon He will replace the aches and pains of your heart with more love, joy and a BIG smile in memory of your mother.



"Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning."

Psalm 30:5



God Bless You!

Dear Taylor, Mattie, Elnora and Family:

I am a friend of the family and one of Taylor's co-workers. We at the U.S. Department of Education feel that we are a part of a large family of love and support. Please know that everyone's prayers here are with you and yours. Mothers are very special and their passing leaves a particularly deep void. Please believe that she will always be with you and we hope and pray that the loving support of family, friends and co-workers will comfort you in this time of mourning.
