April 26, 2016 at 4:12 pmRoyal was very special to me. I remember all the years she devoted her time, talent and Tithes to High St. Church. I learned from her how to be dedicated to the Ministry.
I will miss her but I will always cherish the fond memories I have.
She was just sweet, sweet, sweet and loving.
