Aunt Mardella,

I will see you again! That special telephone "Hello" that made everyone feel special and loved is silenced but not forgotten. Your life was full of love and zest for your GOD, family, and friends. I know that your heavenly crown is richly adorned with the rarest of jewels, because you are indeed one of GOD's perfect jewels. Your sparkle and shimmer will live on forever. I love you Aunt Madella and will forever be grateful for you, your life, and your legacy. Uncle Spence is happy now that his 'poo' is with him again, after 30+ years.

Love,

Your Niece

Miss Mardela was a fixture at Mt. Vernon for me all my life. She could always be counted on to share her joy and love of life. She was one of the kindest people I ever met, and she will remain an inspiration to those of us she leaves behind. My condolences to her family.
