I was deeply saddened to hear about the loss of sister Heath. She always expressed such joy and admiration whenever she heard me play the trumpet. Her appreciation for music and her kind words will forever remain a cherished memory for me.

My Condolences to the Heath family,  a wonderful blessed woman has earned her wings. I live in Georgia and went to New Jersey to visit family for Mother’s Day.  Told my family that we’re going to visit Healing and Deliverance church to see Bishop &First lady Heath. While there waiting for her entrance only come to find out during the welcoming process of the service ( when the moderator said we are Happy to see Sis Palmer family and that my mother and first lady  Heath is dancing in heaven)” shocker”  🥲You will be miss. God bless and keep the Heath family and give them peace throughout this difficult time. Love ❤️

My wife and I, as members of the church in Plainfield, NJ, at which 1st Lady Heath who, alongside her husband, the Rev J Heath ministers for many years, has now, with her pasting, left an indelible impression with us.
She was of that hands-on , can-do  and very strict type personality. Irrespective, she was one who cared dearly for her church and did all she could to be of service to each member and their family in the time of their needs. We do miss her and will meet her at the reunion in the air.

Dear Heath Family,

I am deeply saddened by the loss of Sister Heath. She was a remarkable woman whose kindness and unwavering support throughout my schooling, career choice, and life meant so much to me. Her legacy of love and dedication to others will always be remembered. My deepest heartfelt condolences to the family during this difficult time.

With sympathy,

My condolences to Ms. Heath’s family. It was a pleasure to meet Ms. Heath during many family gatherings. She was a kind and gracious person. You will be missed.

Sincere condolences to Bishop Heath and the entire family. Lady Heath briefly taught me at STETHS. Little did I know our paths would cross again when my husband and I came to Pastor Ebenezer Urban Ministries Center(formerly Church of God of East Flatbush). Precious woman of  God. She ran her race well.

Heath persevered until the end of this earthly life and now has entered her eternal rest in the presence of God. I know that the Holy Spirit will comfort you now and in the days ahead.

Lady Heath was very impressionable to me. What I noticed about her at the church events I was invited to was how gracious and relatable she was with people. She treated the parishioners and guests as though they were family members and friends getting together to enjoy one another. She stood out from the traditional First Ladies I grew up observing through her humility, affection, and simply…  her down-to-earth love toward others. I extend My sincere condolences to the Heath Family and to the New Testament Church of God Healing and Deliverance Ministries.

First Lady Sis Smith and I would like to express sincere condolences to Rev. Heath and the rest of family during this time of bereavement, regarding the recent passing of First Lady Sis Yvonne Heat.

Be strengthen, and be blessed, our prayers are with you all.

A giant oak has fallen!
How do you replace a tree so rare?
A tall tree that waves to heaven
Each sunrise ,as it whispers a silent prayer.
This is our dear and precious friend Yvonne Heath.
My friend made our world make sense with her brilliance, her love
for God and humanity. I will always remember our friendship from our time at Mico College through time to her visits to Florida. Like the fallen oak, Yvonne is now silent but not for long. Only until the 
Lord returns and the dead in Christ shall rise first.  
Take your rest my friend. See you in the morning.

She's gone to a better place and may her sweet,  precious soul rest in God's bosom.

I am so sorry about the loss. Yvonne has always been so kind to us. I still have a lovely dish that she bought for me one Christmas. She has never forgotten to supply me with a Christmas cake ever year!
She really liked cassava pudding and even when I used to tell her off for eating it I still found joy in making it for her. 
The day before she went to be with the Lord Ray went to visit her and she asked for the cassava pudding. I went home that evening and baked it for her only to get the call the next day that she couldn’t wait for it, she was already resting in the arms of Jesus. Our prayers are with the family. We are glad for the reassurance that our God is a god of all comfort.
