My heart goes out to the family. I'll always remember Jean and Bill from Parkwood Baptist Church. She was so talented and played the piano and organ. She was so good to my Mom and would come and visit often. I still have the magnolia arrangement she brought my mom. Always cherish the wonderful memories we always hold in our heart. God bless you all!

To The Loved Ones of Jean Watkins:

I send heartfelt sympathy in the loss of your beloved Mother.  May she rest in eternal peace and may the light of God surround each and every one of you--now and in the days ahead.

We both shared a great love of music together over the years. But what I will always remember the most about Jean was her kindness, strong faith in God and the love of her family.  

John 14:1-3 1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. 2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
