Larry, Lisa, & Dana,
"Ma" as I called her will be deeply missed at church and in the community. Thanks for sharing her with me. She was so sweet and so easy to love! Her special spot in the sanctuary for prayer on Sundays will seem to be void now, but I know she'll still be with us in spirit. I will miss her beautiful warm smile, as well as seeing her "cut her eyes" at me while trying not to laugh! We all have wonderful memories to hold on to. I'm here to help in any way that I can and I know I can speak for her Deacon as well! Love you all...

To Lisa and family members, continue to hold onto God's unchanging hands, and HE will continue to carry you through! Ms. Theresa fought a good fight, and now it's time for her to rest! I will always remember the smile she wore. She has a new address, a new walk, and a new robe! To be absent from the body, is to be present with the Lord! Servant of God well done!
