My sister , my friend:
I remember our first meeting at Mama Josephine’s House when we were little girls. Precious brought me over to meet the Allen girls. You girls were so friendly and welcomed me in to whatever games y’all were playing. I realized at that moment, you were a leader. This was the beginning of a life long friendship. I became one of your sisters. Your mom took all of us to Brainerd High School everyday and picked us up every evening (those of us she could find)!! Lol
As time continued, we became adults and went our separate ways. We never lost contact because you see, we were all sisters. When my kids were born, you were in ATL pursuing your career. We still kept in touch as sisters do.
You have always been such a sweet spirit. A peace maker, the voice of reason for all of us girls. Your hard work and continued success is an example for me to follow. Whatever you did, you gave it your all. You were dependable and encouraging. Problems became solutions after consulting with you.
Your life is a testimony. You accepted your illness with grace. You kept pushing on to complete every assignment God handed you. You never complained, even when you felt poorly. I watched you endure pain and prayed that things would get easier. You seemed to snap back after every episode of crisis. You were strong for so long. As time went on, you became weaker and weaker but you never gave up. God saw that you had finished his work and needed to rest. He took you home shortly after I said “so long”. I will miss you but there’s work to do in the kingdom now. And you are the perfect angel to get the work done. Until we meet again ......
