Morris of Monroe, Louisiana and Lula Bell Saulsberry of Shreveport, Louisiana; three grand children, Terri Belvin Sapp (Milton) of Calhoun, Louisiana, Mary Belvin and Brenda B.

Then he said unto thee go you way, eat the fat,
and drink the sweet,
and send portions unto them
for whom nothing is prepared:
for this day is holy unto our Lord:
neither be ye sorry;
for the joy of the Lord is your strength
Nehemiah 8:10
