  1. This beautiful Christian woman was one of Gods Ambassadors. She walked and talked the word of God. She was a beautiful example of a true christian. I loved her dearly and will be seeing her at that great wedding supper alone with so many of the old time warriors whose race is finally over. She held out to the end. Go to your eternal rest sis, we are not far behind. I love you my dear sister in Jesus.

  5. Charlotte I am so sorry to hear about your mom. She was a wonderful lady who I was very happy I got to know. I loved her accent and listening to her stories. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family as you go thru this difficult time. (Kelly from Gaylord Family Practice).

  6. We will miss the birthday calls from Aunt Nancy. I could always count on a call from her on my birthday and various other times of the year! She was a very special Christian lady who just happened to be my aunt and I know she is checking out her new home now!! Praying for all of our family as she will be greatly missed.
