Our Beloved "Aunt Tressie":
Hers was the sweet spirit,
the pleasant persona,
that warmed our hearts
in our too-few times together;
She put the 'great' in Great Aunt,
for she could bring a smile
to our faces just by
being in the same room.
The end of her earthly time,
like the end of our visits,
leaves us sadder,
and looking toward the next one;
At least we can know this:
the next time we see Aunt Tressie,
we can enjoy her company
without the worry of time.
---
Our condolences go to Uncle Lloyd,
Steven and Dale

With Love and Sympathy From:
Her Niece
Patricia Grace Collier,
and Grand-Nephews
Andy Collier,
Ben Collier,
Joel Collier,

Aunt Tressie was always a sweet, special lady. I will miss her. My mothter Patsy adored her and treasures the quilt that Tressie made for her more than any other possession she has.
Tressie and Ninnie (Virginia) are together again and smiling down upon us as they rejoice in their great reunion.
Love,
Reid Collier (Patsy Grace Collier's son)

This message is for Lloyd, Dale, Steven and Debbie:
I cannot tell you how this saddens me to know my dear friend is gone. As all of you know, she was a like a mother to me and it gave me such joy to speak with her via telephone from time to time.
She always told me of the good things happening in the family and how proud she was of all of you.
By way of internet, I check the Herald-Dispatch 2-3 times a week and I awoke early this morning and found my sweet friend's photo and information on her death.
She will always be remembered as an influence to others by serving God. She was always there for me and we talked recently about how God has been a blessing in our lives. She helped me through so much and I am forever grateful to her.
May you be comforted by friends who care for you, by memories dear to you and by the loving presence of our Lord.
God's blessings,
Flora Carter
