She gave selflessly without thought or worry of any compensation. That was just the kind of woman Mama was. To know her was to love her. She is survived by: a devoted and dedicated husband, Carl V.

As our mother would say, If I left anyone out, God forgive me. My mother is a woman like no other. She gave me life, NURTURED ME, TAUGHT ME, DRESSED ME, FOUGHT ME, HELD ME, SHOUTED AT ME, KISSED ME, BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY LOVED ME UNCONDITIONALLY. There are not enough words I can say to describe just how IMPORTANT MY MOTHER WAS TO ME, AND WHAT A POWERFUL INFLUENCE SHE CONTINUES TO BE..MOTHER, WE LOVE YOU! e/mee Selection...........................................Choir Prayer/Scripture..................Bishop Luther Iglehart The Life of Willie Mae Reid Harris....Ms. Ashley Harris The Wife, Mother, Sister and Friend Tribute from Grandchildren (Two Minutes) Ms. Angela Harris, Ms. Princess Lowe, and Mr. Tabius T McCoy Words of Comfort.....................Bishop Luther Iglehart Selection.............................................Choir All of Her Children (2 Minutes).Mrs. Lauren Burnett Mr. James Reid Reflections from her Friends Family (2 Minutes Please) Mrs. Connie Adams, Mr. Henry Tabius McCoy and Ms. Sheila Gilbert Reflections from Her Friend Pamela Dunn........Reverend Hope Iglehart Eulogy..........................Pastor Tyrone Miles Acknowledgements..............Reverend Hope Iglehart and Williams Funeral Home, Inc.
