Sending my heartfelt condolences to the entire Lanier family!  I love you!  My heart is broken!  Mom Lanier has a whole place in my heart!  She was a queen amongst queens. She made me laugh and gave great godly advice and was quick to encourage me. I loved how she loved my daughters, her granddaughters, Chrislyn and Shaylyn. Never a moment that I couldn’t walk into her home without feeling loved and accepted unconditionally. May God comfort her children, grandchildren, sister and other family during this time of grief!  God bless, Jewel- Newport News, VA
