Sending my sincere condolences to the family. We were just connecting on ancestry when I found out my mom cousin passing. May God comfort the family n may Margaret rest in eternal peace. Darlene Brooks

Thank you for being my mother. I miss you dearly and still taking are of stuff.

John 14:2 In my Father's  house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

Dearest Margaret Johnson Griffin  ,
You told me that when you met my mother I was three. Two single struggling mothers bonded together as friends-you became thick as thieves just like Thelma and Louise-close like beans and rice seasoned just right with a little bit of spice-and I won't forget the cornbread with a tad of butter melted on top. Yes Shannon Griffin , Robin Jackson-Butler  and I along with the other siblings combined came from very humble beginnings and that's no lie! We saw and heard things that children should never have to endure but we had one another with God protecting all of us for sure! The bond between you two mothers was tight, when one was down on her luck the other was right there to help the other up and if the both of them were feeling depleted or defeated they found the strength and courage to hold all of us up! You were tough ass women in the struggle and this is what I remember. But when my mother was killed we lost touch. I thought about all of you and held you close in my heart. Two and a half decades later I was reunited with My soul sisters Shannon and Robin and we've kept in touch. It would take us 45 years for you and I to embrace Margaret. I was elated and I could feel my mother's touch. I have not been able to put it completely in words but my spirit and my soul felt light. I could have stayed in your presents for days but I had to get home. And for this I continue to praise God and to say thank you Jesus he brought us back together so that I could say goodbye to my other mother. Love you always. Earleana Stewart

I have so many memories but I often speak about the fact when we were growing up in Arkansas I loved it when it were turned to cook because she made desserts she made such fantastic ones. 
Our mom give birth to seven girls we all are different but at our core we are the same , at the end of the day it all about family. But I can truly say she always leaned with her heart . And we all knew that. I Love my sister it’s not easy to be left behind not alone good place to be, but I know all her sister was standing there with a big sisters hugs. I will miss her saying this is my baby sister
