We were very sorry to hear the passing of Mrs. Minnie. She was a wonderful and special lady and will be missed by everyone. We always remembered her special poems and I still have the poem that she wrote special for Mom (Carol Simmons).
Our prayers are with all of you, Brett & Terri Holloway

I am so sorry for your loss. I just heard about Miss Minnie this morning on the radio. She came to read for us at Rosewood Assisted Living Center on HWY 96. We have all lost a good friend.

I will miss Ms. Minnie's smiling face. I worked at Wal-Mart in Jasper in the grocery department for years and I always looked forward to talking to Mr. and Mrs. Williams when they came in for flour and supplies to bake their bread. I couldn't wait to get that bread home and enjoy it. I knew how much love was baked into each loaf. Prayers to the family.

We cannot be sad at the Homegoing of Mrs. Minnie! She has written and read of her readiness and anxiousness to join her Saviour and her precious, Tony for years! Our hearts will miss her but for a brief time, then we too will join her for a great reunion! Meanwhile, we have awesome memories of concerts shared, meals and fellowship beyond compare and we have the words she left. We have more than we deserve!
Our love and condolences to the family and our hearty thanks for sharing your loved one with all of us!

What a dear, sweet lady! She may not have been a "singer" of Southern Gospel music, but she participated in her own way and she was always supportive-always encouraging. I will miss her emails, her telephone calls, and her smiling face. Heaven gained an angel....who happens to be a great poet!

Mrs. Minnie was such a blessing, as I listened to her beautiful poetry at Bethel Chapel several times. She has inspired so many with her testimony. May God Bless you as you grieve during this time, but feel God's comfort as you know she is rejoicing in the arms of God.

I only met Miss Minnie one time at the Fourth of July celebration a few years ago but she was fun, interesting and inspiring. Her poems were wonderful! Wish I had some of her bread too remember as some have mentioned. My prayers and condolences are with you all during this time and I pray the Holy Spirit comfort you now, In Jesus Name. Love to all of you.

Even though I only met Miss Minnie one time, I was throughly impressed with her love and her talent. She is not a person who could be forgotten easily. I send my condolences to all the family and also, my prayers for peaceful hearts during this time of adjusting. God bless you one and all.

Ms Minnie was such an inspiration to us all. I loved to hear her recite her poetry on the radio. My personal favorite was Memory Juice but loved all of her poems. RIP Ms Minnie. May God bless your family. Heaven has a beautiful new angel in the choir.

My prayers go out to all the family. I enjoyed her poems in church, and the day she passed I heard another one on KTXJ. She is probably reciting some of her poetry to Jesus. We have lost an Angel.

To the entire family of Mrs. Minnie.. I was so sorry to hear about Mrs. Minnie. She was a wonderful lady who will be greatly missed. She & Mr. Tony touched so many lives while here on this earth & I am sure they are together now rejoicing with each other.I always looked forward to the times when they came to the pawn shop in Newton & Woodville where I worked selling their delious breads & cakes. We always had to stop & visit with each other. I would always have to go out to the van & see Mrs. Minnie & get a big hug from her. Again,I am so sorry for your loss. Elaine Jones Adkins

What wonderful memories I have of Mrs. Minnie, her fresh home-baked breads and self-penned poetry. She was a ray of sunshine and a source of inspiration. What a treasure she was and I feel very fortunate to have known her. May her family find comfort in these thoughts as well as the memories of special moments they shared with her.

Sorry to hear of Aunt Minnie's death. We always enjoyed reading her poems with dad. I think Aunt Minnie was dad's inspiration for his poem writing. I know that they are having a great time reuniting in Heaven! You are in our thoughts and prayers!

Knowing Miss Minnie has been a blessing to me and my family. She is now with God and Jesus in Heaven where Brother Tony was waiting for her. There is no more sickness, pain, or suffering. I will cherish for always the writing she presented me honoring me in Jan. 2000. Good bye for now till we meet again.
