My Godsister Belinda, I called her Stella B because I knew she didn't want me to. But in return, she called me Amos E because she knew I didn't want her to (classic Linda). Her smile and quick wit will be missed much. I thank God for the time he allow her presence to bless us all in her own way. We also pray for comfort to Torrence and the family in this time of mourning. We love you all. Erlon & Lisa Tunsil

To Justina and family. May the peace and comfort of God be with you now and always. You are all in my prayers

To Torrence and the Lockley Family we offer prayers of peace and comfort as you celebrate Linda's life. Although her path on this earth has ended she will forever remain in our hearts. A beautiful and kind soul. Love you all. Dennis and Sandra Armstead

Linda, I will miss hearing you call me "Ponytail." Although you were one of my sister's dearest friends and my niece's godmother, you held a special place in my heart! Rest in Jesus and I'll see you in the Rapture! Grace and Peace...V. Bracey-Bradshaw 🙏🏾✝️❣

To the family, We will truly miss our sister Belinda. She was a good friend and we often depended on her to laugh, tease and exchange smiles back and forth. She will always be remembered by her smile and good times we shared. She's gone the last mile of the way, May God Bless and keep you all in his care and comfort you with his Love.

Sister Belinda was a joy. The last time I saw her I gave her a big hug as I always did and as per usual she told me not to mess up her makeup. I will forever appreciate her for sharing stories with me about my mom when they were children. I didn't know of the generational connection my family (my great grandmother Molsie Porcher- Frazier and my aunt, Naomi Frazier Tunsil) had with the Lockley's until she shared childhood stories with me. Although I am so saddened by her transition, I know the struggle is over. May God's peace rest with Bishop Thomas and the entire family.

John 14:18-19 I will not leave you comfortless. I will come to you. Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also. To the Family... We Pause asking for God's presence during this time of grief. We ask that He wrap his loving arms around each of you, filling you with peace and giving you comfort. May you also find comfort in knowing many are praying with you and for you during this time and in the days ahead. Your family chain is once again broken, nothing seems the same. However, as God calls you up one by one, the chain will link again. Our Deepest Sympathies... Hugs 'N Blessings Brenda & Kecia Woods (COG SOP Mbrs)

To Warren and Family,my Prayers are with you ALL. The suffering is over. Belinda is HEALED. May she rest in PEACE. Geneva Pittman

i called her my Big Sis... she was the only one i could legally cut up with, "in church." Warren would always say, "now I'm going to ask these two, to behave," we never would act right. We would be laughing & acting up. Belinda would always say, "where he think he going, i guess he think he gon preach," & then all the shenanigans would begin. i miss my friend, my Big Sis. My condolences and all my love goes out to the family. Yall are in my prayers. Belinda you will forever be in my heart. RIH.
