Dear Shariman will always be remembered as such a kind lady. I felt fortunate to know her through volunteering in the nursery at Summit.It was evident that she was proud of her loving family as well as caring toward many others around her.

Dear Shamiran,
I can still remember the day I walked into Nashville General nursery dressed for Church and there you were in your scrubs, caring for your "Babies."   The conversation that followed changed both of our lives forever.  Up until then I had known you only as "the best NICU nurse at General," but that day I got to know you as a person, and because of you, your son Edmund.  That was almost 24 yrs ago, and yet in Our Father's eyes it was only yesterday. In the years that passed afterwards,  I was blessed by having the most wonderful mother-in-law that a daughter could ask for.  I was also blessed by the beautiful example you set as a Christian woman--you truly embodied the virtuous woman from Proverbs.  Strong and hard-working but gentle and caring; meek but fierce when it came to protecting on of your little ones, whether it be one of your "Babies" from the nursery, or one of your own grandchildren.  Willing to give the shirt off your back, you were one of the most selfless persons that I have ever known. Too soon you were robbed of the joys of this life, and yet thankfully you have also been spared many of it's sorrows. I will miss you but I rejoice that you have been reunited with your memories, and are now truly "flying with Jesus" as you did in your dreams as a young girl.  Thank you so much for your love, your shining example, and most of all for sharing your life and your son with me.  In His Love,  Gretchen

A true Christian lady, cheerful smile and so pleasant.  When I had pneumonia she brought food several times for my husband and me.  Foy, if we can be of help to you we are just a few houses away.

Shamiran was a wonderful Christian lady, mother, and wife and was such a great example to others.  May she rest in peace and may God bless her family.

Mr. and Mrs. Prater were known to us through McKendree Nursing Home, 2E.  Mrs. Prater's room was across the hall from our mother's, Ruth Gibbs.  Although Mrs. Prater could not speak, her eyes were kind.  Mr. Prater was careful to always speak to our mother, finding words that would make her smile - a hard task some days.  We wish we had known the Praters in kinder times, however, it was a blessing to have them during their time at McKendree.  Thoughts and Prayers for strength and comfort during this time of loss.  Mr. Prater, we can never thank you enough for your uplifting spirit and kind words to our mother.  Barbara Patterson, Hal Gibbs

Foy, after looking for you for many years, its hard to believe that we found you today of all days.  We are so sorry for your loss.  If only we could have found you at an earlier time we would have enjoyed talking to you both about Tehran, and your wedding.  We are thinking about you and send our deepest sympathy.  We will try to contact you in the near future.  Don and Rita Green - Pittsburgh

Michelle, Even though I didn't know your Mom well, I know you were a loving daughter and she was a joy to your sweet family. Thinking of you, sweet friend, in your loss.

We have truly known an angel through Mrs. Prator.  As her neighbor and friend we raised our daughters together and she showered everyone of them with the most Godly love.  Just last week while visiting my grandsons I took them by her home and told them of the beautiful woman who lived there.  When there was pain she was always there with a beautiful hug and smile for you and when there was laughter hers was as sweet as a angel.  We love you all Foy,Edmund, Michele and children and your lives have made our richer and you and Mrs. Prator will be in our hearts forever.  Betty Campbell,Shawn, Dawn, Tamrya and families.

What a legacy of love that Shamiran and Foy left for family and friends! Keeping you in thoughts and prayers.

Aunt Shamiran,
I have wonderful memories of my time with you! You were always an example of Christ's loving kindness.
Earlier today, i had a vision in my mind of you in heaven.You were wearing a cream/white color robe.Your surroundings were brightly lit and you were beaming with a happiness i find hard to describe.Then a voice said "Shamiran it's Susan".You turned around and saw my mother.She looked at peace.You were both well.I will carry this memory with me always.
Love you until we meet again.

Allison

Our dear, precious Shamiran:  You were the joy of my life when you and your familly moved to Mustang, OK.  What fun we had!  Shopping, planning youth activities, vacations together in Arkansas, church, Stitch and Chatter Home extension Club,  and watching our children grow up, all make up the many memories locked in my heart today and always.  You and Foy taught all of us how to love and be loved, and your example of what Christian marriage should be, shed a shining light on all who came around you.  Your legacy will live on through your children and grandchildren and on and on, until we meet in eternity.  That will be a wonderful reunion!  I love you so much; we All do!  Molly and Freddy
