On Friday, February 19, 2021, God looked down from heaven and saw that the flower he had planted seventy-seven years ago had started to wither and lose its sparkle. At 6:00 p.m., God sent his angels down to earth to bring His flower home to be renewed and shine in his heavenly garden.

She leaves to cherish the fond memories: Her life-time companion of fifty-two years, Willie James Allen; four children, Darryl Rembert of Okeechobee, FL, Reginald Rembert of Indianapolis, IN, Vincent (Diane) Rembert of Okeechobee, FL, and Leslie (Alexander Ivy) Rembert of Fort Meyers, FL; two sisters, Barbara Goodlow of Bakerfield, CA, Georgia (Thomas) Perry of Frostproof, FL; two brothers, Willie Wilson of Jacksonville, FL, Odell Bryant of Tampa, FL; five sisters-in-law, two brothers-inlaw, twelve grandchildren, six great-grandchildren, a very special niece, Elizabeth Shaw; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
