d family, I am so heart broken. Ms Mattie was in one of my mentor/volunteer training at Main Elem. I had the privilege that day of taking her home because it was raining very hard. Ms. Mattie was a little shy at first but quickly opened up and we became friends. She was so sweet and she offered to help my sorority sew a few pillowcase dresses for little girls in Haiti. Ms. Mattie told her daughter about the need for the little dresses and she joined in to help. What a blessing!!!!I am so thankful to have met Ms. Mattie. Rest in Peace precious Ms. Mattie.
John and Cynthia Johnson of Harvest, AL sends our deepest condolences Ms. Harris Family. May God comfort and bless you all.
Our hearts are heavy, but to be absent from the body is to be present with The Lord, We shall meet again. Dave and Sheila Patterson

Roderick and Terri, I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your Mom. I saw her some weeks ago in Belk. She was picking out a dress and asked for my opinion about it. She was so very proud of you too. Every time I saw her Roderick, she would say, " I know you would be so proud of him." She would tell me all about where you lived, about your family, and what you were doing. I would tell her that I was so very proud. Please accept my condolences and I pray that God comforts you all during this most difficult time. Much love to you.
