Mrs Erma was a great Christian lady. She put her faith into action. Always doing for others. She was a selfless person. I will miss her dearly. So thankful I got to know her. Tell Mrs Birdie I said hey.
Carl,
I am sorry to hear about Ms. Erma passing . She was such a sweet lady and we always enjoyed talking when she was at the office for an appointment. She shared a birthday with my dad and always reminded me of that ! It was an honor to know her and help take care of her dental needs all these years .
Carl and David, so sorry to hear about your Mom. Erma was a dear neighbor and friend on. If I can help in anyway please let me know. She is in Jesus arms and not in anymore pain. May God bless you and your family. My prayers are with all of you.
We are so saddened to hear of Mrs Erma's passing. She was such a precious, sweet lady and we loved getting to know her while attending First Assembly West Memphis. She was also a good friend to my mother in law, Joan McAlpin. I know they both are rejoicing in Heaven together. Praying for the family.
