Dear Sirs:
I just read your article, "Newsmakers, May 2011."
Under the title 'Birthdays: 100th' it listed my great aunt Irene Sparks-Williams.
I am happy to read this. I, however, have sad news to report. Since that time, she has passed. She was the most wonderful, dedicated person I have ever known to God our Father in Heaven and his only begotten son, Jesus Christ Our Lord. Auntie went to meet Our Father In Heaven on March 30, 2012 at age 101. Her stone will read: December 25, 1910-March 30,2012. What occured as Faithful service to The Lord during that dash is more than space allows.
In Christian Love,
Jeri A. Johnson
