Saying how much you meant to our Mother and us, cannot be said in mere words, you were the glue that kept us and my Mother connected to our roots in Alabama. I will miss our conversations about life, Family and Love. You will live forever in my heart. Terry.

My Aunt Corene and Family, I cannot tell you how much it meant to us that you kept us connected to our Alabama roots, you made a point of always including us and our Mother in all the happinings of Mother's birth home. You made sure we always felt love and connections to Alabama. Saying I love you and I always will miss you does not convey how deeply my love goes. Love you always,Terry.

Aunt Corene, you were definitely a shining light in our lives. A heart of pure gold.Phenomenal woman of grace and God's mercy.You were truly a blessing.Rest peacefully.You have truly gained your wings in heaven.Forever loved and missed.Your niece Celia Pruett and family. 🙏

To the Family of Mrs Corrine. I had the pleasure of meeting Mrs Corrine at the Smith Station Senior Center. She was very active and played Dominoes and bingo and ate lunch daily. I since moved back to my hometown, Detroit, MI in 2016. I was sorry to hear of her passing but rejoice that The Lord Jesus has welcomed one of his children home. God shall wipe away all tears one day. Ms.Roby Hill

Prayers of comfort for you and your family, Mrs. Peterson, on the passing of your mother -- from Bishop and Lady Lewis and your New Testament Church Family.

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