Condolences for the family of “Ennis Ann Houston”

Condolence from Sister Phyllis Robinson on November 21st, 2020 11:59 am

I met Sister Ann when I became a member at Temple of Compassion over 15 yrs. ago. I would see her get her praise on every Sunday. She loved to praise the Lord.

Also, she was faithful, trustworthy, and dedicated to our Pastor Evangelist Patricia Turner.

Dearest Wonda, we pray for your strength during this time of loss. Aunt Ann was a beautiful woman- inside and out, a cheerful giver and will be greatly missed. Words cannot express our sorrow for someone so dearly loved. You made your parents very proud and honored them until the end. For this, God will continue to bless and keep you. May you find comfort for your sorrows in knowing that they are together again and you will see them some day in paradise. I thank God for having you and your mother in our lives. She was a cheerful giver and we know she surely loved us just as we loved her. Please know that we love you and are always here for you.
Love,
Abiona & Family

Ms. Ennis was lovely! I often requested that she “stick” me when donating blood as she had the best touch. So sorry for your loss.

Condolence from Lindsay Morgan on November 28th, 2020 10:56 pm

I had the pleasure of working with Ennis for 10+ years at Redcross. She is one of many who helped me get to where I am now inside the organization. I will definitely cherish all the memories I have with your mother. She was an amazing woman and will be greatly missed. Your family is my thoughts during this tough time & I’m sorry for both the losses you’ve had to endure in such a short time. Love you Mrs Ennis, until we meet again……❤️
