Psalm 23
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’s 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 anointest 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.

Life Reflections Ms. Viola Thrower was born on October 1, 1939. She
was born and raised in Rebecca, GA., to the late Eddie

elementary and high school in Rebecca, GA. She later
moved to Miami, FL, where she met her daughter's
father, the late P.V. Edwards, who passed before the
birth of their daughter, Joan Edwards. Viola then
moved to Douglas, Ga, where she met the late
Vietnam War Vet PVT, Edis Black, who was the father
of her son Lee Roy Thrower, "Baby Boy," as she called
him.
Ms. Viola worked at Harrell's Dry Cleaners and South
Georgia College for several years. She attended
Williams Chapel under the leadership of Bishop Nuby
Jean Williams, where she played the bass drum for
many years. Ms. Viola was a true praiser and
worshiper. She loved God, and as long as the church's
doors were open and she could attend, she was there.
Ms. Viola loved her church family. She was truly
indeed a good and faithful servant.
She is preceded in death by eight siblings: Adella
Young, Roxella Thorton, Mary Lee Austin, Susie Mae
(Jerry) Robinson, Mamie Lue Wilson, Clarence
Thrower, Willie C. Thrower, and Anderson Thrower.
She leaves to cherish her memories: two loving
children: Joann Edwards (Conner Crook) of Douglas,
GA., and Lee Roy (Cheryal) Thrower of Miami Fl; five
