I will always remember Mrs. Masters. She was a very kind and sweet person. I remember her singing and directing the Calvary Choir. RIP Mrs Masters, God has called you home to direct the Heavenly Choir. May God comfort the hearts of the family and friends during this time.
For as long as I can remember "aunt Gert and "uncle" Jack were a part of my life. We were always so excited when they came to our house. Uncle Jack always found a nickle to give us and aunt Gert would sing songs as we sang along. Her passing has caused a sadness in my heart and summoned precious memories that nothing can take away. She's singing sweet in heaven now. She's with her love uncle Jack, my mom and dad. What a wonderful reunion they're having. My sincere condolences to the family. May God give you Blessed peace .
