My Grandmother was the bedrock of our family. She led a long and productive life. She taught us all to show God's love and kindness to others. I appreciate the love and support of her church family at First United Methodist and the Searcy Community.

Mrs. Julia was an amazing lady and I had great admiration for her. She and Mr. Black always sat near us in church and later she did. I always enjoyed visiting with her. My sincere condolences to her family.

To Mrs. Julia's family, I had the pleasure of helping her when she would come into Walgreens to get some pictures printed. She was such a delight each time I helped her. She certainly loved her family and I would usually get some story behind the pictures she was printing. She lived such a long life and saw so much but I will remember her the most for all the kindness she showed me when I helped her at Walgreens.
