From back in the days living in James City One thing I can Say About Mrs Mary she always had the same golden heart...I remember when my Mother and Bopete would go out of town she went out of her way and cook us a full course meal and not to mention she had a family of her own to feed that's the kind of lady she was.. I always loved her she always treated me like Family and I know she's in A Happy Place...I Love You Mrs.Mary Marshall Take Your Crown R.I.H
To my family I send my sincere condolences to each and every one of you. Aunt Mary was always welcoming to me whenever I trotted myself to your house and she always treated me like one of her kids. She will be missed dearly. She loved everyone and had so much love to give. Heaven has gained an Angel 🪽
I Loved this woman as my own mother, she treated me like her own son, she never sugar coated anything and only wanted the best for me, when she wasn't saved and much in the years of her Salvation.
To my pretty Glamour, I will always Cherish being loved by you! To have been the niece to such a great woman is an honor I will forever be grateful to God for. Though my heart is broken, my soul is happy because I know who held your hand! I love you Aunt Mary!
Please accept our sincere condolences. May you find comfort in knowing that Mrs. Mary is where we all want to be, a place of ultimate eternal peace and grace, in the presence of God. With love and prayers, Ann, Mack, Brandon, and Whitney Daniels
Family, this is going to sound strange, maybe coming from a cry baby like me, but when I read that mama had gone to be with the Lord, I initially felt myself ready to sob, but no tears came. I felt my heart break. But immediately I heard, "The greater your sorrow, the more the Heavens rejoice". Somehow, although I am very sad, I am so excited for the heavens for receiving Mama Mary with trumpets blaring!!! What a party!!!! We will miss her, and ill miss giving her "drive by kisses" but she is the guest of honor at a way better celebration!!! We send our love with her!!!
My sincere condolences and prayers for the family. May our God comfort each of you in your time of need 🙏🏽.
Family, what can we say except fly high. You've earned your wings and you are now with Bro. Rest in Heavenly Peace 😪 🙏 😪 🙏
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
