……weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. Psalm 30:5.   I extend my condolences to the family of  Sylvia Sargent. As a member of Sisters Network Memphis I am thankful to have known this great woman of God. I still appreciate reading the book she authored and  spoke about at one of our meetings—Musings. May God continue to comfort/ strengthen you during these difficult times. 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

I am struggling to find the right words to express what’s in my heart. You were so much more than an executive assistant to the church—you were a light to everyone around you. Your unwavering dedication, your boundless love for others, and your selflessness in giving everything of yourself are qualities I will forever cherish.

I feel incredibly blessed to have worked alongside you in ministry. You didn’t just serve; you loved, you cared, and you uplifted all of us with your beautiful spirit. Your presence was a gift, and you made a difference in more lives than you’ll ever know.

I will miss you deeply, my dear friend, but I know your legacy of love, faith, and service will live on in all of us. Rest in peace, my love. You will forever hold a special place in my heart.

Blessed to met Carmen 25 years ago who taught Marcus & I  how to cook steaks at the ButcherShop. We shared countless memories. 
10 years later to meet your sister Sylvia has truly been a blessing to me personally and work in leadership for 8 years in God’s Kingdom. Praying for the family during this difficult time.
