Mrs. Lillie Belle was a dear lady with a great love for Jesus, her family, and her church. She was so precious to encourage me and the children of Mountain Park FBC, and we were all warmed by her hugs and loving smile. She has been missed for quite some time since she has been physically unable to attend church. May God cover you with His peace and grace as you grieve your loss.

Oh Dear Lady, I will miss those hugs and smiles you always blessed me with. Even on the worst days you always brought a smile to my face. remembering things from my parents ( Leon and Polly Carswell ) your husband past, and all the good times. Your beautiful i thought grandchildren though it may have been you great grandchildren and the funny stories of their lives. I pray the Lord will bless her family with peace knowing there were plenty of people from Stone Mountain waiting on her with open arms. God has her in his arms but we will all have her in our hearts.
