Our heartfelt sympathy, thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time. Baychild was a wonderful, caring individual. When our mother, Sarah, was here in Atlanta in the nursing home, Baychild would call frequently to find out how Mother was doing and how we were doing. Her support, concern, advice and words of encouragement will always be a positive memory. Each year she would send us a Christmas card, and we would sometimes talk during the year. Her conversations, though infrequent, and cards will be greatly missed. I will always remember the positiveness that she projected and am thankful that I had the opportunity to interact with her.

Family, I want to express my sincere sympathy for the loss of your mother. BAYCHILD was a woman who inspired us by her genuine love and care for her family and everyone she knew. She was a true example of a Christian indeed. God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, nor sun without rain but he did promise Strength for the day, Comfort for the tears and Light for the way. May you find peace in the love and sympathy of the people who love and cherish BAYCHILD.

WITH MY DEEPEST SYMPATHY
