Nancy, Henning and Family,
I am so sorry for the loss of your Mom. She was a special lady and always helpful and kind in her many years of working at Belk’s. My Mom worked with her in the early years and they enjoyed each other. My prayers are with you during this time of loss. May God bless you with his comfort and peace now and in the days to come.
My Sincere Condolences to the family. I work with her for many years at Belk. She was a very nice Lady.
Nancy and family,
I am so sorry to hear of your mom passing and I pray for your comfort and peace. Your mom was always so helpful when I went to Belks and when I was working there. Your mom truly showed her Christianity by her actions in all she did.
We were so sorry to hear of the passing of Ms. Doris. I remembered her best as working at Belk Tyler when Ms. Shirley Morris worked there too. My mother, Marie Tillett, was friends with Ms. Shirley and her. She was always so kind and helpful. We later got to see her more at Corinth, where we are also members. Please accept our sincere sympathy.
