''Her worth is far above rubies...The heart of her husband trusts her...She willingly works with her hands...She rises while it is night to provide food for her family... She reaches out to the poor and needy...She sews and makes garments for herself and family...She speaks with wisdom and kindness...Her children rise up and call her blessed...'' Thank you, mother, for the Godly example of sacrificial giving you have been to us and for your unconditional love! There will be a private graveside service for immediate family members on Wednesday. Reverend Jayson Hines will be presiding.
