I miss my aunt BeBe. I remember as a little girl she would pick me up and take me home with her to play with my cousins, all girls. We had lots of fun and always had ice cream. I was the only girl in my family for my first six years. She always made sure I wasn't lonely and made me fill part of their family. Love you sweet auntie. Looking forward to seeing you in heaven!

Earth has no sorrow heaven cannot heal.... I am deeply saddened by the loss of my friend and co-laborer of the gospel. I rejoice in knowing that you are with the King. To all of the children Pastor Vincent, grandchildren, sister Rose C. So many names and people I could address I will just say we will see her again. I remember all the kind acts and labor of love she showed me and my family. I remember the early morning walks around the track. The prayers we prayed...she was blessed among women. See you in the morning my friend. Well done thy good and FAITHFUL SERVANT.

What a blessing to have known Mother Williams these last 4 years. Always smiling and sharing the goodness of the Lord in her life over the years. A true believer and witness for God...she will be missed. I rejoice over her life, ministry and legacy.
