I got to know Evangelist Catherine Smith from the Austin Chapel's Tuesday Soup and Prayer. She saved us with her musical gift by playing piano as we sang hymns. Later I had the pleasure of picking her up then dropping her back home every Tuesday. During these times she shared her faith with me and we shared family stories. She told me of her love of her family; Fred and her niece . She was always impeccably dressed. Evangelist had such a kind sweet personality.. always gracious never a harsh tone ... and the drive to serve was admirable and an example of her faith. I thank God for placing her in my life if only for that short while as pandemic hit and soup & prayer shut down. I know she got a standing ovation when she transitioned with a "well done my good and faithful servant." Peace be with you good Lady and WOG. My deepest condolences to her family. Darryl Johnson
