I knew Mrs. Finch through my 30+ year friendship with her sons Rusty and Nathaniel. I will remember her kindness, her loving nature, and they way she welcomed me into her home. My condolences go out to her family and friends

Dear Bonnie, Meredith, and Jonathan,
I first remember your parents before any of you children had started to school. You would come with them to campmeetings or conventions and sit in those old folding chairs in Grace Tabernacle. How faithfully both your parents kept guiding you to the God to Whom they had dedicated their own lives. Now they have both gone on, but the power of their loving influence will live on in your hearts forever. May God comfort your hearts now and in days to come. I would be happy for any of you to contact me or to send me a copy of your mother's obituary as given in her service. May God bless you each one.

Dearest Bonnie, Johnathan and Merideth and Famlies; I was so saddened to hear of your mother's passing. She and my Mom were such good friends even long before they were married. I believe Mom said they were roommates for awhile when they were in school and Mom would talk about the fun and interesting times they would have. I have pictures of them together. I will try to find them. May Jesus give you peace and comfort in your sorrow. We love you.

I was so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. She was such a kind person. My husband and I used her car on our first date 30 years ago. She loved to talk about that. May God be with you during this time. Durwin and Elaine Bump
