My heart felt condolences to the Atkins family. May the Lord wrap his arms around you during this sorrowful time. 🙏💛 Valerie Walters
My most sincere, heartfelt condolences to the entire Keel family. Please know that my continued prayers are with and for you all during this time. I take pride in knowing a God that promised us that if we accept/accepted him as our Savior that we would meet again. Every time that I've had the privilege to be in cousin Ardelle's presence, I could always see, feel, and hear the presence of God in her life, so I have no doubt that she is resting in the presence of God. Family, we she see her again, until then, celebrate the wonderful memories often. Love you family ❤️🙏🏽❣️🙏🏽❤️ Denise Clark (Flowers)

Sons of Lennie (Ardelle), Sorry to read of your loss. I remember her from my childhood as a very kind, soft spoken, tend to her on business kind of lady. SHE was a lady!! She made the best cakes was a dear friend of my aunts, Blanche Burrell, and co ushered with Mary Vaughan at the GHBC.
Both her and Mr Kitty Kat were decent people. I remember my mom...I PBurrell, , my Uncle CM Price annd Ida and Philip Price always spoke highly of her as a Keel and your grandfather the Rev. never could tell she was a PK. Never phony or arrogant. Your parents always had a well manicured yard too.
Now ,that she has been granted eternal rest from the almighty know her soul does rest in peace. Know you were blessed to have been gifted a wonderful Mom-Lady-Kind Spirit.
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
