Betsy Aiken Obituary

To the Aiken family, so sorry to hear of your loss. We pray that God give you peace and comfort during this time.

I would like to express my condolences to the Aiken family. My family would like to express their condolences as well. Though I may not know her but for one day to know of her is still a priveledge. May she rest well with the Lord and I also pray the Aiken Family's strength in the Lord. If there's one thing I do know that GOD allows all things and everything happens for a reason. GOD is, GOD can, and GOD will! Be blessed and stay strong. :)

Our prayers are with you...Tony and Vickie Miller. Hattiesburg, MS

Crossing the Bar

Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,

But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep
Turns again home.

Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;

For tho' from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crost the bar.

Remember

Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. My deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.

Theresa, I am sorry for your loss. May god bless you and your family.

Chris, Sharon and the Aiken Family,

Hold tight to memories for comfort, lean on your friends for strength, and always remember how much you are cared about. Our thoughts are with you.

Aiken Family,

Your mother will be missed and we send our blessing in this time of celebration. God will meet your mother at the gate and invite her in with the rest of God's heavenly people. Your mother allowed us (Joe and Lucille children) to enter her house as one of her own. We send our blessings and love to all of Jill's children.

John 14:27
“Peace I leave with you, my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.”
To the Aiken and Ladson families we send our prayers in this time of bereavement. Our Father in heaven sends angels to earth to bless all those that they encounter. Ms. Aiken was truly one of those angels.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

My Dearest Cousins,I was sadden when I heard about auntie. These words of encourgement came to mind for the family:
(Revelation 1:4) Grace to you and peace from HIM who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven Spirits who are before His Throne.

I'm there with all of you in spirit. Much love your cousin Pam Williams

To Lavonda Aiken & Entire Family .

You have my deepest sympathy on your loss. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you. She is gone from her family sight , but not from her family heart.

To LaQuett White and Family:
I am sorry to hear about your loss. Stand strong and be encouraged. Yes you love this mother, grandmother,sister,aunt,cousin but God loves her best. My prayer is that God comforts you in this hour and continues to bless you all.

Pervis I know your grandmother was like a mother so this hurts as much as losing a parent. When I lost my father last year I appreciated the words of encouragement you gave me, please know I'm here for you if you ever want to talk. Continue to be strong and remember God doesn't put more on you than you can bear. I'm a living testament that with time it gets easier and you will never forget her because her memories will be with you forever. As you raise your son instill the same morals and values that your grandmother did in you, she was so proud of you so continue to live your life how she would want you to. Be Blessed!

Oh grandma, thank you, thank you, thank you! I love you sooooo much, I will truly miss you!

Ladson & Cecelia and family:

Please accept our deepest sympathy for the loss of your mother. You and your family are in our hearts and prayers.
May the peace which comes from the memories of love shared, comfort you now and in the days ahead.

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.
