Lillie, I truely know you are in Heaven. You was the sweetest lady I have ever met. I count it a blessing to have known you. You never passed up the chance to speak to me every Sunday morning, & you was always dressed in the prettiest dresses. I sure am going to miss your sweet little face & your quite small voice at church & at the monthly ladies meetings. I know I will be seeing you some sweet day. I will never forget you!!
To one of God’s choiciest servants. We will see you in the morning!!
sorry for your loss we are sending prayers to the family
Lillie I know you are in heaven and walking the streets of gold. No more ironing for you. You cheated on us, by leaving us. I will sorely miss seeing the back of your little head on the third row, end seat at church. You were there every service. I will miss everything about you. We’ve worked many hours together in the kitchen at church. You were precious.
Love you, Barbara Parler

Brenda, I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your sweet and precious mother. It was just a few days before that I saw her in the yard digging with her flowers as I left church one evening. I was so shocked to find this out. I missed the funeral as I didn’t find out until tonight that the funeral was today or I would have most definitely been there. Please know that I will be lifting you and your family up in prayer. I haven’t lost a mother but I have lost a father and a step-father and it never gets easier. Just know that God knows your broken heart and He knows the reason for every tear. Let Him dry your tears but keep her alive by holding tight to the special memories in your heart. She will always be with you and we know she is with Jesus right now. May God wrap His loving arms around you in the difficult days ahead. Take care Brenda and again I am sorry I missed the service. God Bless you and your family as you face the days ahead. Love, Teressa Tipton Warren
