“Pretty Willie”, “Blessed by the Best”, “Too blessed to be stressed”, “S—- senior Citizen”, “Blessed and highly favored “. She fought the good fight, and now she rest. My friend since elementary school, God’s Gotcha, see you in the morning.

Such a beautiful person, inside and out. Always smiling. Such a pleasant person to be around. St. James Family and the rest of her family has lost a very special "Lady" Miss Willie Mae Gooden. May God bless and keep all of you is my prayer.

Dearest Sister:
We little knew that morning that God was going to call your name
In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same.

It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone
For part of us went with you, the day GOD called you home.

You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide
And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.

Our Family chain is broken and nothing seems the same
But as GOD calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

Rest In Peace My Dear Sister. Love You Forever,
Cynthia

My dear sister Willie Gooden. I'm so heartbroken for your loss. I thank God, for the time we were able to unite. Thank you for being the big sister that you were, and, I'm so grateful, you carried out Daddy's wishes, to find us. No words can express the hurt of losing a sibling, but, I'm grateful to know, you'll be with Daddy, and all the loved ones that left you as well. Rest peacefully my dearest sister, until we meet again. Your sister, Jeannie.

This is the most difficult let alone heart breaking responsibility that a sibling has to do especially when it involves loosing a sister who you loved very much. My sister Willie Mae Gooden was a very caring loving and thoughtful person who cared about her family and friends, I am going to miss her dearly and I thank God cause he makes no mistakes and she was truly Blessed by the Best. I love you very much sis till we see each other again.

Willie Mae “Diva”. I was always met with a smile on her face. That’s the way I want to remember her. Playful and full of energy. God called that smile and energy home. The “Diva” is resting for her next journey. See you Willie Mae. Condolences to the family but know that she is well now.

Momma.... My life is not the same now that you are no longer here. My heart aches for you daily💔 You were not only my mother, but you were my friend. I find comfort in knowing that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. You fought a good fight Moma & I am so thankful to know that you are no longer in pain and you are at peace. I know you are smiling in Heaven with your beautiful, infectious smile & I know you are singing zion songs with the Angels. I Love you Moma, and I will see you again when the Good Lord calls me home🙏 Until then, Rest in Love Moma😪💔
