Mrs McSparren worked with me at Hinds Community College for a number of years. She was a sweet lady, a smart and dedicated employee, a Christian and a wonderful friend. We had many talks about raising children. Our paths went in different ways but I often wondered about her. Rest in peace with your savior, Geneva, your work here on earth is done. I am sure our Lord would say `Well done my good and faithful servant.´
