As we said goodbye today to a dear Christian lady, we felt sad, but rejoiced for having known Retta and the life she lived. Thinking and praying for her dear family and how they cared for her as she had always cared for them

Retta was such a special lady. She and I would talk at the mailbox so much. She was so pleasant to talk to. I remember how she got up, fixed up, and met each day with a smile. My thoughts and prayers are with you all today, and in the days to come. God picked a beautiful flower. All my love, Rhonda

My thoughts and prayers and those of the Owingsville First Church of God are with Retta's family and friends through this time. I have so many good memories of Retta and Wheeler and have great hope and assurance that they are together today. With Retta's passing, another one of the greatest generation has departed from us, but, she leaves a legacy that will remain far beyond her years on earth. Her life mattered, she made a difference and she will be missed. I pray for God's comfort and peace to be upon all of the family and those of us who loved her and will miss her so much.

So sorry to hear of the loss of a True Lady. She exemplified Christianity, love for her family, and dedication to community. She had passed those traits down to a wonderful family.

Retta was such a sweet Christian lady. I have many fond memories of her from my childhood and time spent at Salt Lick Christian Church. I still have the cookbook she gave me many years ago. God bless your family always.
