My heart was sadden to hear of the passing of my beloved schoolmate and sister in Christ. Sis. Carolyn and I shared many, many conversations about the Lord. And our last conversation at "Walmart". I know that she was faithful, loving and kind, full of joy. No doubt I knew she loved the Lord. She would always encourage me, every time she heard me preach. She will always be in my heart. To Mother Dent, Her daughter and First Lady Bonapart and Family, Keep looking to the hills from which cometh your help and strength.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Carolyn was the epitome of all these fruits. She would always greet me with a hug and a smile, calling me "Auntie B" whenever and wherever we got together. In the words of our young people today, she was not fake. I am thankful that I had the privilege of knowing Carolyn. My prayers are with this family asking that God's peace be with you now and forever.
