She would do her devotions faithfully. She looked forward to communion, and she enjoyed the worship and fellowship at church. Prayers for her meant a great deal to her and brought her comfort. She was a kind person simply because she reflected the love of God in her life.

She loved her family very much and spent much time enquiring about the ones who were busy and giving accounts about the children. She had great joy whenever the family could assemble for a meal or go on an outing. She was so proud of everyone’s achievements.

As I recall my own relationship with Mama, I can truthfully say that she was very good to me, very considerate of me. She was always deferential to me so much so whenever Susan wanted to make a point with her she would (to my chagrin) say that that was something which I had said too. Some said that she was a very proper person, and in a way this meant that she would be concerned about not inconveniencing me and being very gracious to thank me even when I give her a ride home in the car from church. I will sorely miss the smiles she always had for me.
