She served on the Pastor’s Aid and Bylaws committees and remained a faithful member until her health started to decline.

And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “See, the home of God is among mortals. He will dwell with them; they will be his peoples, and God himself will be with them; he will wipe every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more; mourning and crying and pain will be no more, for the first things have passed away.”And the one who was seated on the throne said, "See, I am making all things new." Also he said, "Write this, for these words are trustworthy and true." Then he said to me, "It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give water as a gift from the spring of the water of life. Those who conquer will inherit these things, and I will be their God and they will be my children.PallbearersGary FergusonKevin FergusonTyrone GaffordFlower GirlsHazel ColemanAlicia FergusonLashawn HubbardAnna WashingtonAcknowledgementsThe family would like to acknowledge with sincere gratitude the many loving expressions of sympathy shown during this time of bereavement.A special appreciation and thank you to Maggie’s caregivers, Arylece Cousins, Nikisha Edmonds, Annie Goode, Lashawn Hubbard, Doreen Spencer, Minerva Venable and Centra Hospice for their unconditional love and devoted care of Maggie during her illness and members of the Springfield Baptist Church.13601708699500Professional Services Entrusted to the:Bruce & Stiff Funeral Home, Ltd.Luther M.
