It was my pleasure to have studied the words of God with Mona at GRBC Sunday School. May God continue to bless her loving family.
Pat was an amazing woman who will be missed greatly. She was a loyal member of Faith Bible Church and Green Run Baptist. Such a sweet lady who always had a smile on her face. I am certainly going to miss her!
It was an honor to know Pat. She was faithful to church at both Faith, Bible Church, where I knew her, and Green Run Baptist after Faith Baptist’s building was sold. She was quiet and loyal, a hard worker who never complained, always smiling and thankful for her life. She will be missed. We are praying for her family during this difficult time.
