Dear Simmons Family, I am a friend of Maria Nesbitt-Winbush (step-sister to the deceased sisters). I am praying for the entire family. Please know that everyone is deeply saddened by your lost. Only the God of the Bible, Who is on the throne, will be your comfort and peace. He will help you. 2Cor 5:8 ...Absent from the body, present with the Lord...Wherefore comfort one another with these words 1Cor.15:58. Love and continual prayer. Lisa Taylor

The Lord is there when everyone else has gone home, my heart goes out to all the family.I had the pleasure to know Brianna especially in her younger years. she was a good girl , she was a camper at M.L.K Daycamp until it closed. Joangela & Chuck you call on the lord because he's the only one that can make things come out alright. So put your hands together and put them in Gods hands and let him lead you
