This just breaks my heart. 😢 She was such an amazing woman! She had been through so much over the last few years with her health but she still stayed strong in her faith. I have known her and her sweetheart, Mr. Ables, for 25 years. They always treated me and my family like we were part of theirs. I still remember him being outside of the church near the nursery at SSBC greeting. I would get my big hug from him and then find her for more love. I remember seeing her at Dollar Tree several months ago and she asked me why I hadn't been to visit her. I had moved to another church in the area and didn't see them regularly due to it. Another reason was just life...you get caught up with the everyday routine and forget the importance of a simple phone call, visit or hug. My heart breaks knowing that I didn't take that time but I know that they both knew the love that we had for them. I have peace for them in knowing that this dear precious woman of God is now walking the streets of gold. Wow! She will surely be missed. Much love to the family at this time.
