She gave her life to Christ at an early age and united with the Family Church, Berry's Chapel African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church where she served as an usher.

"You Can Only Have One Mother"

You can only have one mother, patient kind and true;
No other friend in all the world, will be the same to you.
When other friends forsake you, to mother you will return,
For all her loving kindness, she asks nothing in return.
As I look upon her picture, sweet memories I recall,
Of a face so full of sunshine, soft hearted for one and all.
Sweet Jesus, take this message, to my dear mother up above;
Tell her how I miss her, and give her all my love.  - Michael
