Oh bless the Hudson family hearts! This is a very sweet loving gentle kind woman who I was blessed to have in my heart as a small child and through out life! Ronnie, Jimmy and Alan I will be praying for y’all through these trying times. I know your mother will be missed but never forgotten!
Ronnie and family, So sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers.
Praying for your family through this difficult time, that our Almighty God will wrap you in His Loving Arms and provide Peace that only He can provide. Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints. Proverbs 116: 15
I've very sad to hear of Daphines passing. She was a loving and caring lady. I meet her at Pleasant Grove Baptist Church many years ago. Later on she stayed two days a week with my Mother and cared for her. She was a wonderful care giver. I know her family with miss her. My Prayers are with her family and friends Betty I. Greer
