Psalm 23
1The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4Yea, 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.
5Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.

One of God's precious gifts, Allene Morris, began her life through the parentage of Leonard & Hattie Broadnax on August 2, 1952 in Kennesaw, Georgia.
Allene was educated in the Atlanta Public School System. She graduated from Avondale High School, Decatur, Georgia in 1970. Her secondary education culminated at Georgia State University. She met the love of her life, Barney Morris, and was united in holy matrimony in May of 1986. To this union two beautiful children, Amanda and Addison, were born.
Allene began her occupational career with Bell South (known now as AT&T) in 1968 and retired from this company in September, 200 1 after 33 years of service. After retirement she worked by her husband' s side in their business, Casualty Consultants of Georgia.
Allene was faithful on her Christian journey. She was baptized as a child at Macedonia Baptist Church in Powder Springs, Georgia. For the last 20 years, Saint John African Methodist Episcopal Church, East Point, has been her spiritual headquarters. Allene participated in the ministries of the church and recently joined the Usher Board.
Allene will be missed by her husband, Barney "Beau"; her
children, Amanda and Addison; her mother, Evangelist
Hattie Broadnax; two brothers, Michael Broadnax, Leonard
Broadnax, Jr; a brother-in-law, Lindbergh Morris; two
sisters-in-law, Alma Berg, Marie Kornegay; a sister-in-love,
Shelia Stewart; cousins, numerous nieces and nephews, and
an abundance of friends.
