I thank God through sis Pauline of knowing mummy Ball. An amazing, beautiful and spiritual legacy clearly shone through sis Pauline of her mother and now this will continue as mummy Ball has been called home to glory.
Sis Pauline, my prayers of God's comfort, peace and reassurance to you and your family.
I know you had one of thee most exceptional, precious and close relationship with your mother and you was a very special loved and appreciated daughter.
One day at a time sweet Jesus, that's all we ask of You.
Your beautiful memories you will treasure until the day you will meet again. 🙏🏾

Catherine and I had the privilege of meeting our dear friend sister Pauline's mother which she loved us to affectionately call her Mummy Ball, where we would give Mummy Ball Pauline lifts from church in what was called 'Cathy's Cabs'...
But our relationship with Mummy Ball grew much deeper during lockdown and social distancing where we'd keep in contact via messages and video calls and over the last few years Catherine would share God’s daily Word accompanied with a Devotional and chosen praise/worship song to encourage Mummy Ball and Pauline and remind them GOD is ever near and His joy their strengths.
Catherine would surprise Mummy Ball with her favourite Bird's egg custard and Pauline with her favourite cream cakes to enjoy over a cuppa. Pauline would video call us so Mummy Ball could see us to say how much she loved her egg custard bless her and to ask how we both were both doing and Pauline always had a word of encouragement and appreciation.
I loved that Mummy Ball called me her adopted son which I'll always treasure along with the beautiful birthday cards she would send us each year, not forgetting our lifetime friendship with her beautiful daughter who we proudly call our sister Pauline.

Proverbs 27:9 says, "A sweet friendship refreshes the soul and awakens our hearts with joy." And our friendship with Mummy Ball will always remain a joy in our hearts...
Friends are the family you choose with your heart where Catherine and I couldn't have chosen a more beautiful friend than Mummy Ball and our dearest friend Sista Pauline.
And we'll always be here for you dearest sister with a Bird's cream cake and an egg custard in memory of Mummy Ball as we toast her over a cuppa!!
Thanking GOD for her life and His treasured gift of family & friendships. 🙏🏾💖🙏🏻

Mummy Ball, you have fought the good fight, you have finished the race, you have kept the faith!
You are now resting in the bossom of our father and we now have to run our own race diligently, so that we can see you on that resurrection morning.
My thoughts and prayers are with you my dear sister Pauline and the rest of the family.
May the Lord envelop you in His love and give you all you need in this season 🙏🏾❤️
