Ms Finley we go way back to 1989 when the North met the south. It started in our Tuesday night bible study class with your daughter Yvonne We came together and remained the same. Forever friends. Thank you for being such a loving family. Sincerely yours Ms Doris Mackey.

Those we love can never be more than a thought away, for long as there's a memory, they live on in our hearts. Please accept my sincerest condolences and know that I am here for you.

Our deepest condolences for your loss, may all find comfort, endurance and peace during your time of sorrow. Revelation 21:4 gives us hope that all tears will be wiped from our eyes and the pain of losing our loved ones in death will be no more. May you find strength thru the reading of the scriptures.

Mrs. Mattie was always so kind and sweet to me. We shared the love of history. Her smile was infectious and the love for her family was evident. These last couple of years so much has transpired and I didnt get to see her. I wanted her to meet my grandson oneday but we always think we have time even though life is showing us differently. But what joy do we having knowing she is reunited with all of her loved ones that left before her. Mrs. Beautiful, Darling, Mattie, rest in love.

Love, Shae

Mrs. Mattie was always so kind and sweet to me. We shared the love of history. Her smile was infectious and the love for her family was evident.

But what joy do we having knowing she is reunited with all of her loved ones that left before her. Mrs. Beautiful, Darling, Mattie, rest in love.

"Granny" or "Gran" as I knew her, even though we were not blood related, was such a beacon of light! When I lived in Georgia I saw her regularly as I tagged along with one of her granddaughter's (Dr. Mia Walker) to see her and she became family! Once I moved away, a trip wasn't complete when I was in Atlanta unless we swung by to see Granny for her famous Sunday dinners. What a wonderful full life you lived! Miss you! My family and I send our condolences and love.

Sharyn, Bunny and Merwood Jones

My sincere condolence goes out to the Finley Family. Ms. Finley was a jewel and I thank God that I had the pleasure to meet and talk with her. At 101 she was a sharp and very classy woman. Rest well in Paradise. I will continue to keep the family in my thoughts and prayers

Lisa & Meicko Perry

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