Our condolences to the Family of Netta Gasden, Early in our lives we were neighbors to the Gasden Family in New York City at the Dyckmam Houses #2 .Ms Gasden was a life long friend /co worker of our late Mother Ada M.Rivers. Our relationship with the families grew as they found out they both were from South Carolina. We rejoice in knowing that they are now Together in heaven . Please accept our prayers Donnie,Leslie,& Eric as our mom transition last year as well. We asked God strengthen you as you adjust to the reality of mom physically not with you. But know her spirit will ever be. In God's love Raunda and Andre Rivers of New York,New Jersey.

Netta built bridges between the hearts of those who wanted and needed a friend. We all know the importance of friendship, don't we? Whether or not you are friendly can determine whether or not someone hears or experience Jesus Christ!My friend allowed Jesus to cross that bridge of friendship and walk into the hearts of all she encountered .....l will truly miss my friend!
