Maggie was a childhood friend and kinfolk. I always looked forward to her visits. They lived down near Atlanta and my Aunt Anna and Rich would bring all the children to Skeenah. They would start at the head where Mow (her mother) lived and sister Iris, brother Odell and Edd (my grandfather) lived. We would play for hours. No problem with time . My grandmother (Arlee) would have that big long table loaded with food and we would all sit on the long bench (probably 10 cousins) at a time. Precious times/Precious memories. We will meet again!!!!

Dearest friends, Anna and Mylinda,
I was very moved when I heard of the passing on of your dear mother. She was precious and loved by all. Those days I used to visit the Tabernacle in Macon will always be special to me. You were blessed to have a believing mother and I pray divine strength be yours, through it all. May the Lord be your unfailing comfort when the days are hard to bear. May the sweet memories of your mother live on in your hearts. May the advice and teaching she gave and lived before you rise up from within, at just the right times to help guide and direct you along life's road ahead.
Love in Christ ALWAYS,
Nancy Edlund Thomas and family

My sweet friend/sister Anna,
Mylinda and family.
I am truly sorry to hear your mother passed away. I know your heart's are broken. Sweet Sis. Maggie was so quiet and such a lady, who loved her Lord and Savior, who was an example of a Christian to all who knew her.
Please know I am praying for you all during this hard time. God will carry you through the months to come. HE will comfort and strengthen you. She is now living what she always believed. She is where we all are longing to go. There is a Land, and she is there waiting on you all to be with her for eternity, never to be separated again.
God bless you all.
Anna, I love you like my sister.
Mylinda, I love you.
