My condolences to her son Darren Green, her grandchildren and family. It is with heat felt pain that I give my condolences. She was always an amazing lady, I think what I loved the most about her was there was never a silence moment between us. She always has something to talk with you about. She was truly special and will always be. It deeply hurt to so hear of her lost, now God. I ask that you will give her son strength, comfort, grace and your mercy. Father God please hold him and his entire family in your loving arms. Sincerely, Marcia Bryant
This was my dear Aunt Selma. She was a beautiful soul. I remember going down south on family trips to visit her, and my grandmother. She was always smiling and laughing. Overall a kind, wonderful person I had the pleasure to know. You would call me every year on my birthday. I will never forget that ever. I love you Aunt Selma. Heaven gained an angel. May God continue to look over us the family, and friends you known, and loved. Dear family this was a great loss and my deepest condolences 💐. Love your niece Janayle aka Carols daughter
