On May 31, 2018 God walked to his garden and picked a beautiful rose.

Mama Sue loved her family, her church, and she was a true child of the King.
She was a nurturing and true caregiver in every sense of the word. She has
taken care of countless children throughout the years and raised a flock of
sheep who will always remember her as their mother when they had no
place else to go.

She was preceded in death by her mother Carrie Mae Harris, her father
Joe Marshall, and sister Helen Rawls.

She leaves to cherish her memories

Bryant (Cheri) of Shreveport, LA; Franco & Tracee Bryant of Shreveport,
LA and Adrian Bryant of Dallas, TX. Grandchildren Taylor, Luke, Quincy,
Ciara, Braelyn, Maddyn, Alexes, Asha, & Tia. 1 brother Clarence Knowles

A host of uncles, nieces, nephews and many other relatives and special
