On this Wednesday Evening in March, 2014; as family members we have spent time sharing photos and memories of you. I will always remember your tender voice, sweet demeanor and your gentle reminders of the importance of family. You (Bertha Wabbington Williams) were a courageous angel! Many times you must have felt a bit lonely knowing that not only had your parents and husband left long before you on their journey to Eternity but all of your siblings. Yet, you still found reasons to smile and enjoy life. As a believer, I cannot be selfish and wish that you had stayed here with us. Instead, I must be grateful for every precious moment, every telephone conversation and every letter we had the privilege to share. I will miss the fact that you are no longer on Earth with us in the physical. Yet, everytime we stare in the eye of another family member, share another hug, see the smiles on the face of others; we will have a part of you left among us. God has spoken and therefore, sleep peacefully in the arms of the Savior. Certainly as you are welcomed into Heaven, the message board will read: Well Done Bertha Wabbington Williams! Out of our love for you, we will maximaize every moment of life, grateful for all the lessons you left for us when it comes to the love of family!
Your Niece, Vernestine (Granddaughter of Erin Wabbington Mitchell)
