Life Reflections

I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge will award to me on that day {11 Timothy 4:7-8)

Mrs. Willie Mae Sampson-Brown affectionately known as "Sister" and "Shorty" was born on August 17, 1945, in Aiken, South Carolina to the late Mr. Alex Sampson and Mrs. Leona Harrison-Sampson. She departed this life on March 15, 2023, at Prisma Health hospital in Columbia, South Carolina.
