Nana, I am going to miss you so much. I loved your yearly visits. The beginning of this year you told me you were feeling better and ready to purchase your ticket to visit again. Unfortunately, Jehovah had other plans. I am so happy you were able to meet and love my now husband Willie. This may sound strange, but because you have met him and made you yearly visits to spend time with me. I am at peace. Happy you are no longer suffering. I know you will be watching over me and my children like you have and your prayers were always felt. I love you and will miss our weekly conversations.
Your Grand daughter.

Words can't express the sadness I feel for Leticia Naylor and her family. My husband and I are honored that we were able to share conversations, laughter, love and good times with "Nan". She was a beautiful person inside and out and she infected others with her love and sweet spirit. I will never forget her smile and the love she showered us with as if we were her own. To the family: Find comfort in knowing that she is resting in paradise. Weeping may come and endure for a night but joy will come in the morning. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Love,
The Perkins Family

Words cannot describe the loss I feel. You were more than just a mom in law. You were like a mom to me for years. You always showed love no matter what. I will miss your smile, your laugh and your friendship so much...Much love always in my heart.

Dear family and friends of Erma,
I am sorry for your loss. The passing of someone you love can be a very hard thing to cope with. Perhaps you can take some consolation in the words Jesus spoke to the sister of Lazarus upon his death. The Bible states at John 11:25, "Jesus said to her: 'I am the resurrection and the life. The one who exercises faith in me, even though he dies, will come to life.'" I hope this message brings you some comfort.

Elise and all other US cousins it has been very hard for me these past few weeks. It has only been a year and a few months our father passed Aunt Erma’s brother. I had always held a special bond with Aunt Erma, we shared a lot. I had the opportunity to stay with her while I attended school in the 70’s and many times after, occasional visits. Most special and unforgettable I spoke to her Saturday July 5, 2014, wow , what a talk we had ending with us saying I LOVE YOU, little did I know this was our last conversation. I know with her strong belief and Jehovah’s Blessings she is at peace. To you all we will continue to remember her as the
Lady who had strengths that amazed us
Carried trouble and burdens
Held happiness, love and opinions
Smiled when she felt like screaming
Sang when she felt like crying
Cried when she was happy and laughed when she was afraid
Her love was always unconditional
She will be greatly missed by many here in Bermuda her birth home.
Peace Love and Much Blessing

Charlotte and I express our deepest sympathy to the family. Sister Burney will be remembered by all that she touched in her ministry. She was a true integrity keeper in Jehovah's service. I will also remember our fun times together at the Newport Jazz Festivals.
