In Loving MeMory of our Mother

Terry Tleaca Ferguson

Sunrise: August 25, 1952 - Sunset: February 28, 2024

As we near two years since God called you home, we take comfort in knowing you rest in His eternal care. Though our hearts still ache in your absence, our faith reminds us that this separation is only for a time.

Your life was a blessing, your love a reflection of God’s grace, and your legacy lives on through us. We feel your presence in our prayers, in quiet moments, and in the strength, God gives us to carry on. The lessons you taught, the love you shared, and the faith you lived continue to guide our steps.

We trust in God’s promise that one day we will be reunited, where there is no pain, no sorrow, and no goodbye. Until then, we hold fast to His word and cherish your memory with grateful hearts.

Rest peacefully in eternal glory. You are forever loved and deeply missed by your children: Randy, Andy, Shenique and Shakeria, Grandchildren, Sisters, Brothers, nephews, nieces, cousins, other relatives and friends.

In Loving Memory

LIVINGSTON KELVERO DAVIS

It is often said that TIME heals all wounds. Even though it’s been three years since your sudden departure, the heartache still feels fresh like the day it happened. You were a blessing to those you came in contact with, and you are truly missed. We miss your smile, your laughter, your voice, your presence. You may be gone, but never forgotten. You will forever reside in my heart and mind.

Forever cherished by your wife Nadia, and all those who loved and cared about you.

Rev.21:4: “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.”
