I’m so sorry for your loss. Praying the God of all comfort will help you at this difficult time. (2Corinthians 1:3,4 & Psalms 83:18). Jesus told us to pray for God’s Kingdom because the Bible promises it will end tears pain and death. (Revelation 21:3-5 & Daniel 2:44).
Fondly remembering Holy Communion Fellowship at our BELOVED member’s home with Rev. Bertha Johnson and Stewardess Team. Praying for family members as you adjust to life without the physical presence of your Mother.
I was honored to be Sister Knight’s class leader. She had such a warm , kind, and gentle spirit. I can see her now on every First Sunday standing on her post as member of Usher Board #1 greeting the worshippers as they entered the sanctuary with that glowing smile. Resting In Heaven 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Mrs. Lucille was the Matriarch of our community in Washington Park.. An entrepreneur and great example of a woman working her own business and managing her family ..She would still get dressed on Sundays and go to church . She will always be remembered in that light . Take your rest Mrs. Lucille and give my Mother a hug from me .
Sorry for your loss, my condolences from our house to yours and family.
