Mrs. Dema was a very special person. She loved children and many of them grew up recieving suckers from her after church. She was like the Pied Piper with her suckers. She made church special for a whole generation. She would knit little slippers for our children and they grew up lovingly refering to them as their "Dema's". She will never be forgotten in our family and we are thankful to God for what she has meant to us. God Bless her family as she has blessed ours.
