Alonzo Peters, mourning Mrs Debra Hailey... and

With sad heart for the survivors yet with the hope and faith that Jesus is Lord and that He led the resurection, we bemoan the death of Mrs Debra Hailey.

It is one of those things that in our natural state we say "how could she, so vibrant and alive die on us?". I remember the activity of the time of being the campaign manager for the Dr. Edith Irby Jones for President of the NMA. Mrs. Hailey was so supportive and real all of the time, very humerous in a concise and deliberate way.

My physician, and her husband Ron Hailey, shocked me when he told me of her protracted struggle with glucose intolerance and the metabolic syndrome, about 2 years ago. He knew that I was willing to help as brother, friend and colleague.

We will all miss you Debbie,
Your wit, your smile, your you,
The only help since your are gone from this world
Is knowing that you
Jesus knew

We know you are up in glory
Your mind your will your heart
but because of your life hear on earth
Loving Jesus in obedience we can start

May we continue to be made aware of her accomplishments and service to Jesus, as this will last until He comes back, and then some.
