   Deepest Sympathy to the Family,
   Brother and Sister Robinson were strong pillars of faith in New Calvary (Detroit, Michigan), and I can still remember the last words I heard Bro. Robinson say, “Get right church and let’s go home.” Also, I can recall the last conversation I had with Sister Robinson many years ago, which was about heaven. She said, I don’t know about this person (who shall remain nameless), but I believe in heaven! I said, me too!

   Finally, Sis. Robinson, you’re home! -Blessings & Love!

   For Auntie,
   The Africans believe there is a tree, the baobab tree, where the Departed go to rest after leaving this life. They also have a proverb: “Truth is like a baobab tree, no one person’s arms can enfold it.
   I have seen such a tree on one of my trips to the Motherland. In Mali, we were shown a baobab tree. I asked my companions if we could hold hands and circle that tree. Sure enough, we could only do so with 7 people holding hands. that tree grows to about 30 feet in circumference.
   I like to think of my mom, under the baobab tree, telling her stories. Now, after 40 years, reunited with her baby sister Bertha, under the baobab tree.
   I know Christians are welcome under the Baobab Tree.. No more struggle, pain, tears, hurt. Not alone either. Auntie, Tell my Mama that I will be there in due season.. We miss you, but there’s plenty good room. !
   Due season.
   Pam
