Add A Condolence

I am so saddened to hear of the passing of Sister Georgia Sanford. I enjoyed the conversations we had over the phone. She would tell me some history about Indian Creek Primitive Baptist Church history. I learned a lot from her. Sister Sanford will truly be missed. We all loved her, but the Lord loved her best.
