To Grandmomma….No words can ever say how much I miss you.I bare strength knowing that God has you in his arms and you'll be doing his great work now. You will always be remembered and we love you so dearly. Family no amount of tears will bring grandmomma back but as a very inspiritional person always tells me, hang on, God already has this battle won. Thanks to my wonderful mother-in-law, Appezene, for those encourgaing words have given me the strength that I need to get through this and I hope you take her advice and do the same. One last thing, a family that prays together stays together so family let's do it how grandmomma would want. Show our last respect in diginity and although it's hard, we should rejoice that she's with the almighty and no more pain and suffering. WE LOVE YOU GRANDDMOMMA….Love always,Minne!!Cory and the Kids
Although we never had the privilege of meeting and knowing Mrs. Carrie Smith, we certainly know her daughter Myrtle who is an inspiration to us, and it is said the apple falls not far from the tree. Our deepest sympathy to Myrtle and the family. May the good Lord be with you at this difficult time.-Roy & Pam Golsan-
