~MY LIFE'S STORY~

"Trust in the Lord with all thine hearts; and lean not onto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him and he shall direct thy paths." Proverbs 3:5-6

Mother Susie Mae Roberts Ritter, was born December 20, 1929 in Allendale County, South Carolina, to Mr. Rickson Badger Sr., and Janie Badger, both preceded her in death.

On Wednesday evening, September 16, 2020, God in His Infinite wisdom, said to Mother Ritter, "Well done my good and faithful servant You have labored over many things and fought the good fight, come now and take your rest." She was surrounded by her loving family; Ms. Susie Mae made her eternal transition in Glory with her Lord and Savior.

Seeking God's direction and guidance, she joined Greater Bethel A.M.E. Church, Fairfax, South Carolina.

She received her formal education in the public schools of Allendale County.

She was united in marriage to Palmas Roberts, Sr. and this union was blessed with ten beautiful children.
