What a beautiful life to celebrate. Waynoka was a very faithful servant at Amy Baptist when I was pastor there. My wife and I know she was just as faithful at Yawkey Baptist Church as well. She was a blessing to us and to all who knew her. Our prayers are with Sue and the family at this time. May God richly bless you all with all the comfort God bestows upon His children. Rev. G. Gale Pauley and Pat.
Praying for her family.
So blessed to have had this beautiful godly woman in my life.
