To our family. Although your hearts may be aching now please know that God can and will comfort you. Cousin Cora will be missed by many others. We will cherish the memory of Cousin Cora spearheading the Pryor Family Reunion and her determination, even while in the hospital, that they continue. We will remember Cousin Cora and Brown coming to our aid on the side of I-95 South when we were traveling to Seabrook, South Carolina and one of our vehicles was disabled. They stayed the entire time even through a heavy downpour to make sure we could continue our journey. We will hold dear the memory of Cousin Cora and Brown coming to our Mother's homegoing celebration in Burton, South Carolina and meeting us at the hotel following the services with a full-course meal. As we too share in your loss, we pray that God continually blesses each of you and strengthens you with each passing day. Hold on to all the fond memories as we certainly will. Love to each of you. The children of Anna Mae Pryor Fields.
