We're so very sorry for your loss.Our family will keep you and your family in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time . MR.Catalin & Shemeka McCary.

A precious one from us is gone. A voice we heard is still. If we could relive the yesterday before our Aunt Agnes expired, just even for a while, we'd sat good-bye and kiss her and maybe see her smile. Although we loved her deeply, we could not make her stay. Her golden heart stoped beating; her hard-working hands were put to rest. Aunt Agnes will never be forgotten though on earth she is no more. But in memory she is with us, as she always was before. God her Creator wanted her now- we know in Christ she's free! We send this message today with our love to bid farewell and say so long to Auntie, knowing we who are in Christ Jesus will meet her again someday when our work on earth is done. With our deepest sympathy: Nieces: Bonnie Frizell, Eva Culp and great niece- Angela Jones

You're in my prayers, I hope it helps to remember that your loved one is in God's care. Please know that you're in my thoughts and prayers,and if you need me,I'm here Love Mr.Jerome and Carol Smith

Good Friendships are one of life's greatest treasures. A true friend can be hard to find, but our friendship seems like it lasted a lifetime. From the day that I first knew you, Your heart was pure and kind; Your smile was sweet and innocent, Your wit was well refined. Our daughters -Brenda and Kimberly grew up together and became good friends too, Through the years we became like family and our friendship stayed true. I found a forever friend in YOU and will treasure our times together We grew in spiritual faith over the years talking about the wonders of God and how his goodness never ends , We shared that faith in God alike –no wonder we were good friends. Our friendship through years was blessed with God's grace And I know your faith and belief in God will take you to that heavenly place.
