Emma Elizabeth Minor, 82 of Kimberly, WV peacefully transitioned from the Earth to glory on December 23, 2012. Mrs. Minor was born to the late Meredith White Sr and Emma White. She is also preceded in death by her husband Culton Minor, Jr, brother, Meredith White,Jr. and sister Lola Saunders. Mrs. Minor was a homemaker and a member of The First Missionary Baptist Church of Kimberly, Kimberly, WV. Her love of God, family and community led her to challenge all who came in contact with her to do their best whether it was academically, in sports or in their walk with God.
Mother, Mom, Ma, MawMaw, Liz or Lizzie, as she was so lovingly called by friends and family , taught us that love is an action word. She said it is not all in what you say but in what you do. All the children in the community loved “Miss Liz”. She was instrumental in teaching children to play games be it jacks marbles, Upwards or the word game, Scrabble. Mother taught us that spending time with family is important. Her visits from her grandchildren were always good but the visits from her great-grandchildren brought a big smile and joy to her.
Some of her favorite things were listening to Gospel music, wearing beautiful sweaters, nice smelling perfumes and eating chocolate candy.
As we shall surely miss her, we do not wish her back here, for as she spoke to the family during her last days on earth, “Praise God I’m walking.” For we are sure that she has “entered into His gates with thanksgiving, enter into His courts with praise……” Psalms 100
A homegoing celebration will be held Saturday December 29, 2012 at 12:00 noon at The First Missionary Baptist Church of Kimberly, Kimberly with Rev. Larry R. Smith officiating. Friends may call one hour prior to the service at the church.
O’Dell Funeral Home, Montgomery is in charge of arrangements.
