liz, when I read this in the email my heart was crushed. I loved your mom's soul. She was so geniune. and God is the happiest of them all cause when your mom put it down in heaven like she did on earth (God will be pleased) she will earn her wings and a crown real soon if not already. I will miss her and her favorite dishes, especially her PEACH COBBLER AND HOMEMADE ROLLS. I love and will miss you, Liz Mama(as I called her). Dee,Jamaal and Tristan.

I adored my "Aunt Wilma" and she adored me. I miss her so much, expecially those early morning phone calls. And I know she was extremely HAPPY when she died. How could it get any better than that???

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I met your mom once at the hospital, and I was most impressed with her sweetness and caring. Liz I know you will miss her, but take comfort in knowing she is resting at peace. Take good care.

I am very sad to hear of this great and tremendous loss. Remember God is your refuge and strength (Psalm 46:1). Would like to encourage the family to continue to look to Jesus for strength, comfort and joy. The Bible says that the LORD Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first...Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord (First Thessalonians 4:16-18). The Bible instructs us to comfort one another with these words. God will keep His promise! God bless and keep each of you. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

My prayers are with you Wilma, and your family. You did my hair when my mother went on vacation and my father didn't know what to do. It was the first time I ever had it cut shorter and pressed and curled. Banana Curls was my favorite...I was 7 years old. I will always remember you and Lizzy. Say hi to my daddy and my momma in heaven... You will be missed.
Always,

When my family first moved here to C.Spgs in 1970, Mrs.Bumpers did my sisters and my hair. I bought the most beautiful suits from Mrs. Bumpers when I became an adult. I will always remember her generosity and giving spirit she always exuded to others. My condolences to her family.

When I was about 12, Mrs. Bumpers would come by and pick up all the neighborhood kids in an old brown van, we would all pile in and try not to smash her hats that were in the back. She would bring food every Sunday with her to church so that children wouldn't be hungry all day. Myself and two other little girls would spend many weekends at her house (she read her bible and we banged on the piano and played dress up with all the clothes she had). She took me to fashion shows and included me in most everything she did and I am grateful for the time she gave. I was witness to her compassion for others and experienced what a giving woman she was. I watched, as a young girl, her allowing so many people to come into her home, until they could get on their feet. She had an enormous affect on the adult I became. She was truly an Angel on earth, and there are not many around like her. I love her and will miss her!
