To the Family i will continue to pray for each and everyone of you. Auntie Ada was loved by all, who will forever be in our hearts. Lean on God for comfort and strength. Love you all
It hurt my heart to know that you are no longer here, Pluke had just stopped by our home and asked us to pray for you and we did, I remember Doc (your husband died September 8, 2013) now 8 years and 2 days later you are gone. I met you when I was 9 years old, your family and my family were close, my godfather James Jones was your next door neighbor and , Cutch (Lillie), Boo Boo (Hubert) Robert and Spoony (Wilfred) were my classmates, Pluke and Belinda were toddlers, you were such a loving mother and each time I saw you you made me feel special and would go out of your way to speak to me, you never called me by my name you always called me Gertrude which is my moms name because you said I looked so much like her, I will miss going to church with you and hearing you singing solos. May God comfort your family as only He can and will. Robin Houser Curry
