To The Mincey Family, My deepest condolences to each one of you. My heart is saddened for the loss of your mother, but she was too a mother as well to me and a good neighbor. We were each other's keeper making sure that our house was covered in the name of Jehovah. Mother Mincey was a prayer warrior that knows how to prophecy over people life with her special gift. I will truly miss you but I know you made it into your Heavenly Home

Remembering Your Loved One,
Like the sunrise that comes each morning,
dispelling the darkness and warning our lives,
may good memories and eternal love light your way through this time.
