Mother Sims had such a beautiful spirit. I've called her "golden girl" for many years because of Bishop Stephen Ackey. Her genuineness, warm caring smile, and her bubbly personality made me want to be around her. She was indeed a real jewel and will be missed. Asking God to grant you his strength and his peace. Vera and Johnny Grant
