    Sherrill and Rhoda, I'm so sorry hearing of your mom.i did not know she had passed. Every time I sing to my self I always think of her. In church singing was my favorite part and I'd watch Sis Mary like a hawk mimicking her movements because I wanted to sing like she did. I mimicked her every move copying her whenever I'd catch a glimpse of her facial movements. It saddens me now to think her voice won't be share anymore here but same time I rejoice cuz she's singing with angels now! always love, Joy Roderick

    I am sorry for your loss. At this time, it is important to draw close to God in prayer, for the Bible promises that "he himself will sustain you." (Psalm 55:22) Take comfort in the promises found in God's word concerning the hope of seeing your mother again and living with her in a world without tears where heartache and death will be no more. (Revelation 21:4)
