When Long Valley Baptist Church did a service at the healthcare center, she was always there singing and requesting songs. She called my husband,"cowboy", because he wears a cowboy hat. We loved her enthusiasm and her smiling face. I'm sure she will be missed. Sending prayers for peace and comfort to her family. God bless.
Fly high you sweet lady you will be very missed I loved hearing you sing love sitting and talking to you I know your in a better place love you little lou
Getting the chance to preach at the healthcare center for the last 10 years Bertha became very special to me. I loved to hear her sing. Every time I hear the song, “When We All Get to Heaven” I will always think of her. I sure will miss the way she yelled out my name every time she saw me. She was a very special caring person. A piece of her will always be with me.
She was such a lovely woman. The Hundred community choir sang once a month and she always sang along And she always said good job boys and girls. And always wanted us to sing when we all get to heaven. God bless your family
Representing the Apostolic Christian Church of Sardis: we so much enjoyed to have Bertha sing with us on the 1st Sunday evening of the month. She had a love for singing and it reflected her love for Jesus her Savior. May you all be comforted in knowing she is safely home. She loved “When we all get to heaven “
