July 3,.2003

',."The Woodlawn A.M.E. Church family rejoicesin the life

.;~ '.' .,~" and legacy of our beloved member and friend, Mrs. Havannah

-. King, tmom God has blessed to live five score years and four.

According to Psalm 90, the life span designated by God i~ three

Iscore years and ten and due to strength four score years. H~

He has blessed His servant Havannah Kingl ~

her home to be with Him. Therefore, we weep not, neither do

we mourn, but we celebrate in this 'beautiful homegoing

celebration. Early Friday morning, June~27th, she shook off

this earthly tabernacle that had aged with pain, suffering

and frustrationand put on ~~ortality. She was taken on

.

the ~rlngs of God to her heavenly home in glory where she

will be waiting for us.

Yes, we rejoice in the life of ~1rs. Havannah King, and

we wonder what can be attributed to her longevity. Her

physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual outlook on life

are those attributes that one can admire.

Page 12: I'liiiI - richmond-home-sliced Havannah McGowan K… ·  · 2008-11-18Cousin Havanna was a remarkable and caring woman who loved everyone. Any,one that was acquainted with h~r knew

Hrs. KLYlgknew the t her body i-ras the temple of theHolySpirit

who resided in her that she had received from God. Therefore, she

glorified God ~Qth her body. She took care of it and nu=tured it.

She was a connoisseur of food and was gifted in the culihary arts.

She cooked good food; therefore she ate good food that was healthful

for her bodyo She disliked bland foods that were not pleasing to the

palate. She loved chicken wings and sweet potato pie. She made the

best sweet potato pies that melted in your moutho

In addition;to eating properly, 11rs. King get plenty of sleep.

In the nursing home, she skipped the five o'clock meal in order to

bed d~m for a good night's slumber.

One may have called Mrs. King, hygip.nic Annie because she detested

dirt ~nd filthL~ess. She kept her body clean as well as her clothes.

In the nursing home, she would wash her under garments and put them

on the heating vent. 1Vhen she was chastised abo~t doing so, she

put them on a clothes line that she had hidden behinp her bed.

Dresser, par excellenc~, Mrs. King came to church bedecked in

hat, gloves, a fine suit or a beauti~ul dress and promenaded to her.

aisle seat approximately four rows from the front orlthe north side

of the sanctuary.

Emotionally, Hrs. King was calm. She told the truth. If she;

didn't like something, she let ~rouknow and did not have any quaL~s

about it. She was indeed a WCWAn with the right attitude.

Comical as she cou~d be, PITS. King could have been a night club

entertainer, for s}le was another Moms Mabley. Shewas so wittyand

Page 13: I'liiiI - richmond-home-sliced Havannah McGowan K… ·  · 2008-11-18Cousin Havanna was a remarkable and caring woman who loved everyone. Any,one that was acquainted with h~r knew

and funny and did not even know it. She was the life of any setting

and would have you in stitches with laughter.

Her emotional ~utlook was an asset to her mental capacity. She

was lucid as a centenarian and could name all of her siblings. She

Was very independent and looked out for herself. She loved her some

money. On April 25th, her last birthday, she opened her cards and

asked, II~-fuere is the money?", ~trs. King WaS a card whom everyone loved.

The main attribute that kept Mrs. King going was her being a

child of the King. She was bo~ again and set apart to do God's will.

She loved Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. She COI!l:."'11u:o.icated 't,.ith the

Lord daily ~~d had daily devotions with her church friends, ~~s. Leola

TUl~ipseed and Mrs. Miriam Keathings.

As a servant of the Lord, Mrs. King ?Torked "t-.-rith the Sunshine Circle

and the Matron's Club. She even sang in the choir, but gave that up

becaftse it demanded toomuch practice.

We ~dll miss !4rs. King, but she has left a l~gacy of a full and

spiritual life. Her invocation to God on Sunday, May 25th WaS awesome

and pOlJ'erful. There was shouting and praising in her room.

His child whose body was decaying, but her inner spirit which was

being renewed longed to be at rp.st and at peace vrlth Him.

Hal1elujah~ niece Ann Parker, first COUS1n Ruth Luster, cousins

Ben ~~d Etta Ingram, other family members, good friend Clara Chiles,

and. the Woodlawn fa!nily. TNhat joy is filling her spirit as she

celebrates with the saints on high!

Hallelujah! Hallelujah~ Thank ,"ou, Lord for the life and legacy,
