When I met Mostella in the 60's,I was a kid. Her kindness captured my heart. She was very Well Rounded Person and soft spoken. Mostella always showed concern for others. How can you not love her, her mother was the same way. Back in the days as a kid, Saturdays and Sundays was family time. You didn't want that day to end when Mostella and the families visited w/each other, It was one of the best of times. Danny, Kelvin and all the family members, I'm so sad for your loss. Cousin Mostella will deeply be miss by me too, because she is and always will be an Icon on the Family Tree. Now, Mostella is together with the Lord.

Love Forever,

The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul:
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name' sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil: For thou art with me;
Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies;
Thou annointest my head with oil; My cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the House of the Lord forever.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Davis Family.

Sincerely,

The Mack/Brown Family

My mother was Ms. Davis' neighbor on Lowell Drive across the balcony. She was a very nice lady and always opened her door to greet me when I came home from North Carolina. I pray that her family will have strength during this sad time, especially her beloved grandchildren.
