Alma I don't know if you remember me it's been several years since last time I seen y'all but I've known Minnie since I was 14 she was older than me but I absolutely loved her and looked up to her. Had great memories with her at CMC. wonderful lady I am sad to hear of her passing. My prayers are with ur family.
At this difficult time in your life, we pray that God will grant you the peace that you need to get through this. Sincere condolences!
The Lord knew how our paths would cross at different times in life. First meeting in church as young little girls. Then we ended up in each other's class in school around forth grade, so our paths were crossing again. You were always full of life and laughter that could fill the room. Even though we all graduated, Minnie had the â¤ï¸ of wanting to stay in touch with each the classmates. Everytime I would see her when I was back in town or at my home church, you would always see Minnie's smiling face. I know she greeted the Lord with a big hug, smile and a giggle that turned into laughter. She probably asked Him if He wanted to dance. Don't be jealous Steven Heathscott or Bryon Rogers.
Minnie always had a smile for everyone she met. Prayers for Alma & the family.
My heart and prayers goes out to each of you and family. Always remember the memories that are good' bad 'and funny. Never be afraid to call her name because she is always listening.
Minnie was such a sweet person. She was always so friendly to everyone and always put a smile on your face. Kenny and I both are glad to say we knew her and called her a friend. Our prayers and condolences are with her family. Fly high Minnie!

I am so sorry to hear of Minnie's passing. I graduated from Kensett High School with her and she was a dear person and friend. Minnie was such a kind and gentle soul and always had a big smile and hug for me whenever and wherever we ran into each other. I will always hold fond memories of Minnie and I am sending prayers asking The Lord to grant comfort and peace to all those who loved her. She has left this world a little brighter than when she entered it and though she has left this earthly realm, I have no doubt that Heaven, also, became a little brighter as she entered through the gates. Much love, Minnie, and we shall meet again my sweet friend.
