My cousin Lee was the matriarch of a beautiful family. She also shared many hours of company with my Mom, her godmother Aunt Sally, and was known for sending thoughtful cards. She will be missed by her family and friends. RIP ❤️

Mimi was such a wonderful person. I didn’t know her for long but as soon as I met her, I loved her! She was warm and caring and funny and made me feel like I knew her forever! I will miss seeing her at Crossroads AG when she’d visit. She was love by many and will be missed always. BUT I know where she’s at….she’s with Jesus now and I know I will see her again! She loved the Lord and it showed! Miss you, Mimi!!! Praying God comfort the family, especially Karl, as only He can comfort us all.
Carol Davison says

Helen Rivera says
Mimi will be missed by all. She touched a lot of lives, she was a great role model for many people. She always had a positive additude. She was just a wonderful person. Mimi was a great Christian lady. To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. Much love and prayer for her family.

My husband Robert “Mac” McCrary and I always loved talking to Lee and Karl at the monthly gatherings of the AT&T/Western Electric group. She had a great sense of humor and she will be missed.

Dear Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. May God’s promise bring you comfort. There will be “a new earth… and He will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore… I am making all things new.” Revelation 21:1-5
Joyce M Thomas says
Mimi was a part of Crossroads AG from the very beginning. She was often in the kitchen planning or working on snacks for after church Sunday evening or dinners. I am glad that she is now with Jesus and out of pain. No doubt she is helping in the preparations for the marriage supper of the Lamb.
