    I had the pleasure of knowing Mrs.Gibson for several years and she was one of the sweetest ladies I have ever met, I know she loved her family very much and I will surely miss her but I know she is now in the arms of Jesus. Praying for the family at this time that The Lord will comfort them in this time of sorrow .

    She will be missed by all who knew and loved her. She was a very strong women in many ways. Granny would have been on earth 93 years in July.
