Lovingly called Ms. Sweetheart, the name honestly fit her. She was indeed a sweet and gentle soul I've known since childhood. May God bless the family in this time of sorrow. Love you all.

To God be the glory, another old soldier gone home to be with the Lord. Carol and James and family, mother is asleep. She did what we still here have got to do, that is leave planet earth for it is not our home. We are pilgrims and strangers traveling through this borrowed land. Eccl. Chap. 3 states. To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven. It was mother time so thank God for the time you had with here and make your preparation to me here there. Your old classmate class of "68" Stanton Vocational High School. Evangelist Margaret Burnett Cummings. Associate Minister of The Greater New Birth missionary Baptist Church. Rev. Dr. Levi White III Founder and Pastor. You all be bless in the Lord.

My dear friend Kimberly Stevenson-Smith and family you have my deepest sympathy during this more difficult time. May you know that God will never leave or forsake you and he is with you all the way to the end. For let not you heart be trouble God has prepared a place that we must go where the streets are made of gold. I know this road we have to travel is not easy and I am here to walk with you every step of the way. Momma presence and sense of humor will be missed. Love you sis
