My Sister she was like my angel, with a love that always glows. She was one of the greatest gifts my heart will ever know. My sisters are special, from young ones to old. God gave me a sister. More precious than gold…..sleep on my sister.
I met Kay, Jack and AC several years ago while joining into the Saturday night Just Us Friends bowling league, my family and myself got really close to them as the years went bye. We loved Kay like a family. She was a really nice person and always treated my family and me with respect. She is now with god watching all over Us. Kay you will be miss but wherever you are, just know that one day we all meet again. Don’t worry about Jack and AC and will make sure they behave LOL. Rest in peace Kay.
Please accept our deepest condolences on the loss of precious Kay. We met her at the bowling TNBA league and she was so quiet and sweet, and yet very competitive…AC, her dear husband is like a brother to us. God has promised that we will see her again, free of pain, whole and beautiful, until then, we will miss her sweet smile. We pray that He ease your pain and give you comfort.Â

I was so very blessed to have known Kay for over 30 years. We started out at Northeast Baptist, worked at Metropolitan together and ended up at Northeast Methodist. She loved what she did and loved her patients. A very private person she rarely showed emotion. I thank God that she allowed me to sit with her on our last visit. We hugged, cried and I said goodbye. Until we meet again Kay, rest in peach.   Â
I am expressing my deepest sympathy to the family of the late Juanita K. Jones in the loss of their beloved family member. My deepest condolence goes to my beloved brother-in-law Jack Williams who lost his sibling, a sister that meant so much to him. I was so impressed with how you cared for and loved your sister during her final days. You definitely demonstrated FAMILY love and caring. We cannot be there during Juanita’s home-going, but please know that the Davidson Family is with you in spirit. Look out for our sympathy bouquet which will be delivered to the church tomorrow morning.  Your ex-sister-in-law loves you much!
