Guest Book

To Denise McQueen Green and family... I was reading this poem by Mari Evans and this line stuck out to me. "I am a black woman tall as a cypress strong beyond all definition still defying place and time and circumstance assailed impervious indestructible Look on me and be renewed..." When you remember Mrs. Mary, remember her strength and her song... her guidance and her class. As you look upon her life be filled with praise and thanksgiving. Be renewed in your inner man with the thought that she was here and she lived her life long and fruitful. May the Lord bless you and keep you in this time of mourning, and may you celebrate her life by living yours in excellence, love, and gratitude numbering all your days under the shadow of His wing. Amen. Dr. Joy McNeil, Colleague of Denise McQueen Green
