Words cannot express the gratitude and admiration that I have for everything Lizzie aka Ms. Honey has always done for family. She took the role as not only a grandmother for our Jessica. There is no one else in this world that I would have trusted with the care of my daughter. My heart is broken but I know she is in a better place and will still be watching over her family. My condolences go out to her family on the loss of a wonderful lady. Love always, Melanie S

Ms. Lizzie was the sweetest ,on fire for the Lord, Mother of the Church we have ever know! She would alway love on us and give us the biggest hug when ever she saw us. Mother could definitely “SANG” like so many have already said. She would break out in a song on the spot no matter where she was and when you left her presence, you felt better cause you just went to Mother Lizzie’s “church” right there! She will truly be missed. Our condolences to All the family members. Be encouraged and know she is in a much better place and someday we will all see her again in the by and by. Love you much and God bless you all! Dr. And Mrs. Hurst & Family

Mother was a Fireball she loved talking about The Lord. I met Dr. Jamie on the parking lot of a Church in Georgia the phone rang it was Mother Dr Jamie began to share with her that I was a singer I started singing No Never Alone. I didn’t know that Mother was an awesome singer too you began singing with me I had to stop and listen to that timeless voice she could SANG. I loved it. I can imagine her singing I Made It. Yes, you Did, No more pain no more sorrow no more suffering. You have junked that Body and put on immortality. Dr. Jae you will see her again
