Mother May Cook
My heart is sad because I found out about your departure several days too late for me to attend your services
I know you Michelle Sheila and Aunt Etta Johnson are up there celebrating together
Such beautiful people GONE TOO SOON!
You and Aunt Etta were Best friends!
Continue to take your rest sweet lady!
Until we meet again
SUCH A SWEET PERSON TO KNOW🙏🏾
My condolences to Mrs. Alston’s family as they heal from the loss of a wonderful lady. May she rest in peace.
I’m so sad right now. She’s been on my heart for a while. In my search, I reached out to Michelle, but she’d passed away. She’s safe in our Heavenly Father’s arms now, so I can be at peace. It’s been a while since I last saw her. I can’t express how much she’s impacted my life. May you rest in peace. You were awesome, Audrey. As a kid, she called me her little girl. That’s something I’ll never forget.
Sending condolences and prayers to May who I affectingly knew her as. The last time I saw May was when my cousins and I visited her when Shelia passed. When I saw her obituary I instantly knew that was here. Get your rest my dear and I know you we welcomed by your loving daughter Shelia, relatives and mostly of Jesus,
Our Mother, our Matriarch our Teacher, and our Spiritual Guide…words can not express how heart breaking it is to know you are no longer here in the body; but it gives me some solace to know your spirit rest in the presence of the Lord, I know my father Felton, Sheila and Michelle, are ALL over Joyed you have joined them to rest in the Lord’s embrace. I will forever be thankful to God for sending you to be in our lives to embrace and nurture me and my siblings as one of your children too. And to this day, we understand the true meaning of how children who came from a previous marriage are made a part of an extended family and shown just as much unconditional LOVE as everyone else.. You will truly be MISSED MAY!!! LOVE YOU SOOO MUCH!🥰
Mary was a kind and gentle soul. It was an honor to know her over the last 6 decades. She helped me in many ways over the years. I will miss her dearly. May she rest in peace.
