To the Gaston Family, you were blessed to have Mother Gaston for so many years. God only promised us 3 score and 10.... But, with the love your family gave her, she was blessed with so many more. I just wanted you to know that you are in my prayers and thoughts. Remember God got you! Love you always - Thymia L Rogers and family .
My sincere condolences to you Reginald and family. Jasper Hirsch

Your mother was a sweet woman of God. She always dressed like she was on her way to a COGIC Convention ( lol). You were a loving and faithful son.

Death is not a period that ends the great sentence of life, but a comma that punctuates it to more lofty significance. Death is not a blind alley that leads the human race into a state of nothingness, but an open door which leads man into life eternal. Reginald and family remember those many memories that you shared with her. Ms. Gaston was smart and alert, coupled with that quicken of the tongue. In fact, I remember her saying "Robert, I haven't seen you in church in awhile." Sending prayers of comfort from Dr. Tarsha & Robert Elliott

Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me To say, It is well with my soul. To this amazing family. There will never be a word said to take away the passing of your loved one. But you have had something most people will never experience. You have had more than a Century of life, love & laughter with your mom. That alone tells us that she was favored and honored by God. We all will miss her but we also rejoice with you because she is the perfect example of what it really means to have an abundant life. May the peace of God rest well within and upon your hearts and soul. I love you guys more than all the words in the world.
