To those I love When I am gone, just release me, let me go So I can move into my afterglow. You mustn't tie me down with your tears; Let's be happy that we had so many years. I gave you my love, you can only guess How much you gave me in happiness. I thank you for the love you each have shown, But now it's time I traveled on alone. So grieve for me a whole, if grieve you must, Then let your grief be comforted with trust. It's only for a while that we must part, So bless the memories within your heart. And then, when you must come this way alone, I'll greet you with a smile and say Welcome Home
Acknowledgements The family of Andrea Grimes Jackson extends sincere thanks for all acts of love and encouragement shown during this most difficult hour of bereavement. Your displays of affection and support will be remembered and individually acknowledged at a later time. Our prayer is that God continues to bless and keep you.

A Time to Love At the tender age of 18, Betty Jean Woods met and married the love of her life, Johnny Woods, Sr. Through this union, God blessed them with 17 children, 6 girls and 11 boys. The love they shared was one of God’s Divine Creation.
A Time to Work Betty Woods had a heart of pure love. Everywhere she worked and volunteered, she planted the seeds of love, peace, and joy. She dedicated her life to helping people; therefore, she worked as a caregiver for 12 years, and later as a Server at Real Tasty BBQ for many years.

Christ came into Mother Woods’ life at an early age; so, she dedicated her life to serving God. House of God Miracle Temple #6, under the leadership of the Late Bishop J.P. Jenkins and the Late Mother A. Stevenson, became her church home. She lived a Holy-Ghost filled life, day in and day out. Family was her life line; she believed in leading by example, and living whole-heartedly for Christ. For the last 7 years, she was a member of Westview Baptist Church, under the leadership of Pastor A.D. Lenoir, Sr., her great-grandson. Mother Woods was an infamous prayer warrior, who allowed God to lead and guide her, every step of the way.
