I am late on this note but did not find out until yesterday that Sister Mavis had gone home to be with Jesus. I loved and was blessed many times by her singing and I have at times played for her to sing at a revival we would be at and I loved going to hear Brother Melvin preach and her sing and sometimes I played for her. she will truly be missed but she is with Jesus now and we will see her again soon.

It's still very hard to believe that you are gone I still can hear you singing  Just across that bridge I loved hearing you sing at or fellowship service you an Rev an Sister Walker Rev  Vann an Rev Moore are all together now enjoying being in the presence of the Lord keep resting sweet lady ❤️ 💖 💙 💕 

It's been one year since we lost you. I miss you so much and love you so much. You always reminded me how I was your one and only grandson and always made me feel special. I have so much to tell you although I know you know all the great things that are coming. We will always cherish the memories we made with you. Thinking of you often. 

Your grandson,
Zachary

In 2010  my Father passed away Mavis came for his funeral and play piano and
sing she said my Father was her favorite brother-in-law and that meant so much to the family
 Mavis was an amazing woman and she could sing and play the piano like no other.
We are so grateful for her visit and to be by my Mother's side. But her visit was a short one
Mavis was also nice to my family. 
I wish I could have come to her funeral. Everything happens so fast
I know she is heaven with my Mother and my Sister they passed not even a year ago
They are up there singing for God. 
I know Mavis is not suffering any longer. I will always be grateful her 
You will be missed
I love you Mavis 
Gone to soon



My Aunt Mavis was a Beautiful wonderful woman.She had the sweetest personality. She had so much love to give to others. She had a beautiful singing voice. She sang gospel music for the Lord for others to hear. She was a blessing for others; she had the ability to pray for others. It was called power prayer to help heal others. It did not matter of the day or night she was always there to pray for her Sister Iva Mae. 
 I'm going to miss the birthday songs she used to sing to My Mother and me.  I loved her sense of humor and her laughing and telling jokes and telling stories.
 When we talked on the phone we would for talk for a good hour
 There was a time that my mom (Iva Mae) and Mavis and my sister (Julia) got to talk 3 ways on the phone they had a blast talking to each other 
I'm sad and I won’t  be able to hear her voice over the phone anymore. Or see her on video call she had some rough times in her life but she took care of her husband Melvin for so many years she was strong  and she took care of her mother for many many years 
I will miss her smile and our talks over the phone 
I will miss Aunt Mavis so much
I love you Aunt Mavis God bless you 
I know that you have been rewarded for things that you've done for other people in your lifetime 
And she sure has earned her Angel Wings, she was born to be an Angel
You will always be in my Heart


How beautiful heaven must be. Mavis was such a treasure to the kingdom of God and truly an ambassador to the King. 
I was honored to share the stage with her on duets over the last 12 years of her life and attended church with her about as long. My apologies for not being available to attend your service yesterday, but dad and mom said it was really sweet. Mavis was the epitome of a soldier for Jesus and what a legacy she leaves behind. I will say farewell for now, but will see you on the other side, “Across the bridge”. 

Mavis was my great Aunt. Iva Maes sister. 
She was truly one of my favorite people of all time. She would often come to visit my Grandparents I would always get excited when I knew that Aunt Mavis was coming. She would often tell stories about their childhood and growing up on the farm. Her and my grandma would sing gospel hymns together with my Grandpa playing the piano or the harmonica. When I was little she would always remind me just how beautiful I was. I loved her southern accent and sweet southern charm. I know she’s singing in gods choir now with my Grandma. When my Grandma passed my mom gave me all the old black and whites that were taken over the years. They now cover my wall. They are priceless treasures that I feel blessed to have. Thank you for the memories Aunt Mavis. 

Where do I start? My nanny was the most sweetest and kindest souls to ever exist. She taught me all about thrifting and yard sales. She was the best cook and always had the best homemade biscuits there was. My entire childhood memories revolved around my nanny. She loved the lord. She was blessed with amazing talent and she used that for the lord. Anyone that ever was blessed  to know her remembers her beautiful singing and piano playing. Nanny could light up a room with her smile and kindness. She was the true definition of a woman of god. My daughter Kylie was born and my nanny absolutely adored her the day she laid eyes on her. She loved her grandchildren and great granddaughter  there are no words to describe how much she will be truly missed. I know you are always with us and we will meet someday again in heaven. I love you so much. 

Your only granddaughter

There are so many memories to name with my nanny. She was kind, funny, and filled with love. I remember as a boy spending the summers with her. Like clockwork, Nanny would have fresh homemade biscuits waiting for us when we arrived. She would go outside with me just to play catch well into her 60's. She would get us things that were unique to what we liked. She put everyone else first, then herself. She always had the best hiding spots for me (during hide and seek) that we talked about even on her last days. She was there screaming at my basketball coaches when they took me out of the game. She was the perfect "nanny". God bless her soul. We will always have beautiful memories of you. Your only grandson, Zachary

Phillip, Michelle & family,

We are so saddened to hear that sweet Ms Mavis earned her angel wings. Though we won’t see her any longer, when we all get to heaven , what a precious reunion that will be.
We have been neighbors of you guys over 20 years. She was such a Godly woman, who loved her family and spoke of the Lord often. What an amazing woman. 
We will miss her! We will be praying for comfort for you , Michelle & the grandchildren . 
If there is anything we can do, please do not hesitate to ask.
Love , The Gann’s
