Remembering nothing but great, warm, kind, and loving memories of Mrs. Ernestine and her children. She and my sister, Hattie Sampson, were great friends throughout life. Praying sincerely for Cheryl, her siblings and the whole family. May God continually bless you all.

I worked for her at Ford Motor Company in the 70s, what wonderful women, I have not seen her since, but for some reason recently I thought of her. She left good impression on me. God bless her soul, and all the best to the family.

I thank God for the time He gave us to be mother and daughter. Sixty five years exactly. You were called home on my birthday and whenever I celebrate I will also celebrate you, mama. You will continue to be my favorite lady in the whole world that’s what I would call you when we talked. You lived without me, but I have never lived without you. My heart is broken ? I miss you ?. - Your daughter Cheryl

To Mrs. Edith's Family and Deacon Aaron and Anita and Family, My heartfelt condolences and prayers are with you. I loved your mom, grand mom and great to the great great grand mom. I would joke with her and call her my name sake. She always had a smile on her face and she was fun to be around. One day, I remember getting her to dance and she was jamming but we forgot we were in the church it was so funny. I know you all loved her dearly but God loved her most and now she's in his care and I'm pretty sure she's dancing up there in heaven too. The Lord Bless You and Keep You.
