In the words of John, Chapter 14:1-3 "Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also." Be at peace in the everlasting love of the Lord dear family. We love you all and you are in our prayers always and forever.

You were my biggest fan, my inspiration, my very first teacher, my provider, an example of perseverance over poverty and courage turned onto confidence. You instilled in me a love of adventure and excitement for what could be experienced outside my own zip code. You were my first personal chef and how we loved your fresh picked, fresh cooked farm to table meals. You were an example of re-use, recycle, repurpose and saving resources way before it became popular impressing upon me the importance of not being wasteful. Thank God for you. Thank God times got better for us. Certainly you worked hard and did not mind hard work or playing hard. Your work in this life speaks for itself. Your spirit lives in my heart. Your love forever embraces me still. I'm proud to be your daughter, your mini-me, your protege and part of your lifer's work. As your spirit washes over the here after, gives all the loved ones and good souls in the spirit realm my greetings including, Aunt Mattie, Darryl, Gina just to mention a few. For souls not named here, I greet them still. You are missed but finally have relief from your pain and suffering- relief that is everlasting. Love you my heart, my Queen, my mother.

The Pegues family of the Carolinas offers heart-felt sympathy to the Pegues-Carter family in Ohio. It was a pleasure to meet Cousin Frances at past reunions. Her beautiful personality will be long remembered.

To Charlene and Family Sorry I couldn't be there. You have my condolences and prayers. Enjoy the times I talked to your Mom. Lenore Green πŸ™πŸΎπŸ™πŸΎ
