My deepest condolescences to the Haynes Family. We can have confidence in the God of all comfort. I've found the words at 2 Corinthians 1:3,4 as source of encouragement when dealing with a loss. Praised be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our trials so that we may be able to comfort others in any sort of trial with the comfort that we receive from God. Kind Regards, Nichols Family.

To Mother Celia and Papa A.C. Haynes. The entire Temple family share in the loss of your beautiful daughter Gennie. She always had such a warm and caring Spirit. I enjoyed and appreciated the times she opened her home when we visited in the ATL for the conferences in town. She has truly left a mark in the hearts of many people. To Norma and Susan, you along with Gennie have always accepted our family as part of yours. We love you all and we know earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal.💞

Gennie was a wonderful person and brought love, laughter, and light to everyone who knew her. Every time I had a conversation with Gennie, I felt better after talking to her. She was an old soul and shared wisdom generously. Her smile was legendary and lit up every room she occupied. Gennie will be sorely missed by those of us on earth, but Heaven must surely be rejoicing!

Aunty Gennie use to bake me a cake every year for my birthday and bring it over late at night and her and my mother thought they were slick and would try and sneak it in but I always knew and would be at the top of the stairs just waiting for them to leave the kitchen so I could cut me a slice. Every year I could count on that cake being there. She never forgot my birthday! That always stayed with me. She was such a loving, caring person! She will be missed dearly!

So sorry for your loss. Genie was such a kind and giving person, and could cook and bake so well. I'm so happy to have known her and enjoyed spending time with her. Revelation 21:4 " And 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." May Jehovah provide you all with strength and comfort by means of the love of family and friends. 🙏🏽🙏🏽♥️♥️. Love you Norma! Pamela Watts
