Soror Pauline J. Smith

12/15/34–11/8/05

The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul:
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name' sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil: For thou art with me;
Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies;
Thou annointest my head with oil; My cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the House of the Lord forever.

God looked around his Garden and found an empty place.
He then looked down upon his earth and saw your loving face."

It is with profound sadness that I share with you news of the passing of our beloved chapter Soror Bessie Wright.  Soror Wright made her transition early this morning after battling a debilitating illness.   She is with our Lord and at peace, now. Words cannot express the deep sorrow we as a chapter must be feeling upon hearing the news about Soror Wright who most recently served as our Chaplain and is a distinguished charter member of North Manhattan Alumnae Chapter.  She was deeply loved by all. As is the right afforded to all Deltas who move on to Glory, we will be honoring her life with an Omega Omega service.  Details for the service as well as funeral arrangements will be forthcoming.   I ask that you each of you keep Soror Wright and her family in your prayers.  Remember her often for  her dedication and the love she held for our chapter and her devotion to public service and her church.  Delta meant so much to her in her life and it is fitting that we remember and honor her memory. A special prayer of blessings to Sorors Mary D. Redd, Carolyn McBain, Mildred Love, Charisse Penalver, Lydia Pitts, Pat Johnson and Chevaletta Alford for their untiring and devoted dedication and care for Soror Wright during her illness. 

Sisterly, Soror Rosia Blackwell Lawrence
