What a beautiful soul. Such fond memories of Ms. Elizabeth and my uncle George during their lifetime. When I met Ms. Elizabeth, her youngest, nickname Sweet Pea, I believe sat on her lap.Always a smile on her face. What a wonderful human being, now resting in the arms of God. Well done thy good and faithful servant. May God continue to comfort the family in the road we all must take. The spiritual "O when I come to die, Give me Jesus" Dark midnight was my cry, Give me Jesus"
