We had the pleasure to meet and spend time with Father Powell and Mother Powell and the family many years ago. I am the Mother of one of her Grandchildren, William Eugene Powell. Eugene Powell was my husband. May you continue to RIP Eugene. I have never felt as welcomed anywhere in my whole life as I felt when we spent time with the family. All of Powell family opened their home and big hearts to us. Mother Powell was a beautiful person inside and out. I am also grateful we could be a part of the Powell family traditional Sunday dinner. I will never forget how wonderful it felt and all of the love we felt during our visit. Rest In Paradise (RIP) Mother Powell. I know you are Home in Our Lord's Loving Arms. Sincerely with Love, Amelia and her Grandson William E. Powell.
