Oh what a beautiful person! Every time we would run into each other, she always had such a beautiful smile and encouraging word. She was the very epitome of a true saint of the most high God. Her life exemplified Christ everyday that she lived. She will be truly missed by all those she came in contact with. Rest on Woman of God...Rest on! You have ceased now from your labor here on earth, receive your reward in Jesus' name.
