Vic and Andy,
you have my deepest heartfelt sympathy. Alma was a very compassionate lady and loved by many. My prayer is that God gives you peace and comfort at this time. Heaven gained an angel and she's rejoicing and whole again.
Sincerely,
Gloria Harris Martin
What a wonderful and sweet lady Ms. Alma was. I am very sorry for your loss. Happy memories of a beautiful soul. My condolences and deepest sympathy to the family.
Earth has no sorrow that heaven can not heal. To know our dear Aunt is at peace, healed of worldly discomfort and its challenges via her passing evokes our sadness. To my cousins, Vic and Andy – cherish her legacy of love and strength. To her remaining sisters and brother, she is ever present in your hearts. As my Aunt now has rejoined her parents, sons (James and Calvin), her multiple siblings, Semia & other family – we are comforted in knowing when we all get to Heaven, our Family reunion shall complete.
My sister, Barbara Ann Young Johnson, and family, my husband, Emmett, and I and our family extend our heartfelt sympathy and prayers to the Alma Kate Young family: her surviving sons Victor Glen Young and Anthony Craig Young and their children and grandchildren; and, the children and grandchildren of her sons, James Charles Young and Calvin Ray Young, who pre-deceased her; to her siblings; nieces and nephews; and other loved ones. We regret not being able to be with you. Dorrie "Chee Chee" Young Aldrich, Washington, DC
