“Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands. Serve the Lord with gladness: Come before his presence with singing, Know ye that the Lord is God: It is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; We are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

To the family of Ms. Zettie Edwards. The Adams & Merritt Families wish to extend our condolences for the loss of your loved one. Zettie, affectionately know as (Babysister) was my very special cousin. We were very close. I will miss our conversations, the laughs we shared, and the visits we had when I visited Houston.
