Fannie Inez Golden

To the Family,

"For God so loved the world that he gave his One and Only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life," John 3:16.

"Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your soul,For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light," Matt. 11:28-30.

May God continually dwell with the family, giving peace that transcends all understanding. We will always remember Fanny and her husband, and their faithful work in the WPS Reunion. Rest in Peace Fanny (RIP).

The Spires, Liggans, Potter, Herring and Gibson

It is with a heavy heart that we, the White Purdee, and Spires Executive Board acknowledge the passing of one of our own, Fanny Golden.

There are no words that can express the true depth of our sorrow or heal the hurt of our pain. There is an everlasting void that has been created, but even in the passing of this our dear loved one, we will continue to look toward heaven for the help and strength that will carry us through. As one of the most senior members of the White, Purdee and Spires Family, we count it a blessing to have been a part of the journey of life that you traveled. A smile that can never be forgotten and a laugh that can never be replaced, we thank you for the life you lived and the manner in which you lived it, leaving for us an example of the magnitude of your love and dedication to this family.

Life is but a stopping place, a pause in what's to be, a resting place along the road to sweet Eternity.

We all have different journeys, different paths along the way, we all were meant to learn some things, but never meant to stay.

Our destination is a place, far greater than we know, for some the journey's quicker, for some, the journey's slow.

But when the journey finally ends, we'll claim a great reward, and find an everlasting peace, together with the Lord.

Submitted with Love on behalf of the White, Purdee, and Spires Family Reunion and the White, Purdee, and Spires Executive Board.

Maurice Herring, Executive Board President

Fannie, aka Sister I remember when we would leave home each day and walk to grandfather's house and he would place us on his knee and pretend we were riding a horse and he would sing "ride the horses to strawberry town, look out little girls don't fall down". We would giggle and have so much fun. I have so many memories of you, of us. I will miss you sister but we will meet again one day. I love you so very much. Love Susie, aka Sister.

My dearest Aunt Fannie, I will always remember your smile, the love of coffee we shared and our discovery of art in our later years. I will miss coming home to spend time with you, sharing a cup of coffee and memories. I will always love you pretty lady, you will forever be in my heart. Love Tina & Brian and family.

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