Oh how I loved this little lady. "Granny" was a shining star during her many years of working at Mt Olive Elem School. I worked with her for several years. She genuinely possed that "Granny" personality of always making you feel loved, welcomed and appreciated. The last time I saw her, she was coming to volunteer her time to Mt Olive to help in any capacity she could. She just adored people and especially the students. My heart rejoices that she is with her Lord and Savior. My prayers go out to her Family as I know how much she will be missed. She was a true jewel of a lady and my life was blessed to have known her.
