What! I can’t believe it! I thought she was just going to live forever!!!
Mrs Monie has been my mentor since 1992 when we met at Brumley Baptist! What a prayer warrior! When I would call she would say I was still on her prayer list! Wow. I’m going to miss her so much. I’ve learned so much from her. I am sharing in your sorrow! Tamara tallant

Ramona had a great and roomy heart, and it was filled with faith, family, and friends. She modeled soul-full hospitality for me in how she welcomed others. Every family needs a Ramona to keep up with their comings, goings, connections, and conditions. She is precious to me. Irreplaceable. I saw Jesus in her. I am grateful for her presence in my life, and fir her ministry to my Mom, her cousin Crickett. Thank you, Jesus, for dear Ramona. Love, Shawn
