CAROLYN WILLIAMS

I know her as Dimples. Dimples was a very head strong firm woman. She said what she meant and meant what she said. Her daughter Gwen is my sister in Christ and so much like her mom. Dimples was very spiritual and she loved her family. God bless Gwen, Jackie and Lil Man.

Barbara Reynolds

I never met Mrs Boyd personally but I did however, hear wonderful things about her. Such as Birthdays, holidays, or just her daily activities. I was privy to meet a few of her grandchildren and both her daughters. Her daughter Jackie and I have been friends and coworkers for.13 years. The values and standards that Jackie display can only be a reflection of her Mother. True example a Child is a product of their environment. My Condolences to the family. Praying for peace and strength for each of you.

Georgia White

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
