To the Hood family, my heart is sad with the transition of our dear love one. I am thankful for having met and known Ms Kelvy, she was a loving spirited woman of God. I will remember her as a warm and friendly person. Thank you for being a Wonderful grandmother and great grandmother. We will all miss you, rest in the arms of Jesus.
Sending love from the Jermaine and Katena Dyser and the boys!! She was a grandmother that came into my life at 10 and treated me like her own. She will be truly missed.
My condolences to the family. Aunt Tiny will be missed. There will be an emptiness when I come home and go by Sarah's to visit. I will not forget the time I came and didn't get to go by to visit Aunt Tiny. She let me know that I came home and didn't come by to visit her. I tell you I never did that again. I love you Family.

I remember when I was about 6 or 7 having early morning breakfast at Granny's house(that's what us great grandkids call her) with my cousin who's 3 or so years younger than me. I got spoiled all those summers out in Crawford because every morning the smell of bacon or sausages being fried would wake me and my cousin up. Well, this particular morning we had an unexpected guest drop in for breakfast. Out of nowhere, a big ole roach/water bug ran across my cousin's plate! HE LOST HIS MIND! "GRANNY GRANNY GRANNY, a roach just ran across my food!", He held out. Granny came in and said, "hush up boy, where?" He responded with, "right there on my grits! You can see his lil footprints in it!" Now this is the part I'll never forget for the rest of my life. This is how real meals are in the field when you're poor and trill. Granny said, "boy, gimme that plate and stop all that holl'n!" She proceeded to take it to the trash. BUT only scrapped off the section of grits that got trampled on and tried to make my cousin EAT THE REST! I fell out laughing. It was either eat or take an blank whipping. My younger cousin is the type who would't drink behind someone even if he was dying of thirst and that was the only spit of water he could get to. Needless to say, he chose butt whipping without batting an eye! You DO NOT waste no food in Tiny May's house!🤣🤣🤣
We would like to send our love, prayers and condolences 💐 to the Hood family. Thank God for giving her 99years on this earth and being beautiful matriarch of the family. A life well lived❣️ Love , Lucille and Victoria Gary and family
My heartfelt condolences to the family.I pray your strength in the Lord.Liz Dixon & family
