God always put special people in our lives and I am so grateful he chose you to be in mind. Love you always, Cousin Priscilla
I am so glad you were a part of my life. We had many good times at the National Conventions. Our last happy events were when you came to New Orleans in September 2012 with the Daughters of Isis. Sister I know that you are in heaven with our heavenly father. Sister, you fought a good fight and you ran a good race. God has a better place for you. I will miss you....
It was such a pleasure knowing B.J. She was a dear friend. Her and I had so many good times in the 90's. I am so grateful to have known her and she was part of my life. My sympathy goes out to all of you that she loved so much.Hope you are surrounded by her warmth, supportive thoughts and peace. I will never forget her. All my love Vivian Walters
