To the family of Doris Samuels: The bible says "Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God". Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God." Doris was both - she had a pure heart and was also a peacemaker. We were blessed to have her in our lives. She will be greatly missed. Right now, she is seeing God face-to-face.

To Sister Henderson and Family you have truly lost a beautiful and blessed woman of God, she touched many hearts with her smile and kind words of encouragement. You not only lost a sister you have lost a friend and a beautiful fashion "MODEL".

Praise God from whom all blessings flow. We have truly lost a soldier down here on earth, but GOD has called his angel home. Sis Samuel will truly be missed in my life. She gave me much encouragement on the All Nations Baptist Church Mass Choir
Family hold on to God unchanging hands.

It's difficult when we lose someone we love to death. May Our Heavenly Father comfort you during this difficult time. Hold fast to his promises in the Bible which states "He will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away." What a glorious day we have to look forward to. You all are in my prayers.

YOU WILL BE TRULY MISSED
I remember 13-yrs ago, when I first came to All Nations Baptist with my two daughters, Pamela and Khadijah. Myself and the girls became a choir member of the church; we were so bless to sing along with Sis. Samuels and she could sing. I remember when we would have choir fellowship and I would request her famous cabbage (Her cabbage was so good I could the whole container by my self). She would make when she work all the hours at work and being at the church for long hours, that just who she was (dedicate, dependable, loving heart).
Sis. Samuels never said much, but when it was time she said what needed to be said at that was it. Her personality, character, style of clothing, jewelry said so much.......... (She was always dress for any and every occasion and matching to a TTTTTTTTTTT).
Sis. Samuel and my daughter Pammie bonded with another, they had there own kind friendship with one another.....many people didn’t know. There was something about there friendship that they shared that I could never explain. But Pammie love her in her own way, they would exchange ink pens because they had that in common, Sis Samuels know that Pammie had passion for different kinds of ink pens.
I thank GOD for allowing us to borrow one of his angels for a little while to share her love with all she touched.
We feel really blessed to one of people she touched.
Leisa, Pammie and Khadijah
