As we approach the Christmas holidays, I always think of Rephyla. I worked with her at DOR. After my husband died she use to always send my children and I a gift from Swiss Colony. She would tell me working with us kept her young. She was an inspiration, a true Godly woman, kind hearted, someone I loved and admired. I always wondered about her. I just googled her and this obituary popped up. Rest In Peace Ms. Rephyla, thank you for showing the love to my family in our time of need.
Lit a candle in memory of Rephyla Hawkins
I am very sorry to hear of the loss of, Mrs. Hawkins With her accomplishments, her love and joys, she was an amazing woman! I won't pretend to know what you're going through, but what has helped me deal with the loss of those I love, is turning to the Scriptures, something that has been a real source of comfort. One Scripture that gives me hope is, John 11:25, which says, " Jesus said to her: â??I am the resurrection and the life. The one who exercises faith in me, even though he dies, will come to life." I hope that this verse will also comfort you and, I hope you and your family can get through this difficult time. Please accept my condolences for the loss of your beloved grandma and friend. Sincerely, Meryl
