Our deepest sympathy to the Celestine Family. Sister Anna will true be miss. She was a God-fearing Deaconess to me. She was a woman with so much class, ready to help anyone. I am so proud to have had the opportunity to service as Deaconess on the side of her. Now fly high sister Anna like the Queen you are in purple (royalty) as it is written in the Bible, and to the Celestine family. I pray that God hold you in his arms and give you the strength you need. Let her wonderful smiles and memories keep you smiling with every thought of her. You will see her again. Much love from the Stovall & Malveaux family.
