My fondest memory is of you speeding down your driveway on your tricycle. Mrs. Nelda kept you impeccably dressed. Pigtails flying in the wind. You were a living doll. You grew up to become a phenomenal woman. God missed you earth angel so He called you home. I love you my dearest sweet soul. Until we meet again, keep smiling as only you can. Your Neighbor and Childhood Friend.

What an amazing teacher, her heart was always there for the kids. I was so lucky to have taught with Azure and there is no finer person inside and out. Her love for family abounds, if she wasn't boasting about how wonderful her husband was, she was telling me all of the great accomplishments of her son, Allen. May God be with this beautiful family at this time and beyond. She will always hold a special place in my heart!

My sincere condolences to the Augustus & Pierson families. Azure was indeed one of the first & most dear young ladies I met back at Istrouma Middle Magnet School.

Blanche Augustus

July 29, 2021

SAYING GOODBYE TO AZURE IS HARD.... BUT SAY GOODNIGHT MAKES IT EASIER! 2 Corinthians 5:8 (KJV) to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. Death is not the end. Death is really a beginning-another step forward in Heavenly Father´s plan for His children. Someday, like everyone else, your physical body will die. But your spirit does not die, it goes to the spirit world, where you will continue to learn and progress and may be with loved ones who have passed on. Death is a necessary step in your progression, just as your birth was. Sometime after your death, your spirit and your body will be reunited-never to be separated again. This is called resurrection, and it was made possible by the death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ (see 1 Corinthians 15:20-22).
Death leaves a heartache no one can heal. But Love leaves memories no one can steal.
Rest In Peace
