THERESA FAYE ALLISON
On November 15, 2023, Jesus reached out in love to Theresa Faye Allison. He lifted her soul into Heaven and into His glorious presence. He wrapped his arms around her and whispered, “Come to me.” Theresa was welcomed into the presence of the Lord.
Theresa was born on March 10th, 1931. She became the first-born of five children in the family of Leslie and Gertie “Hauldren” Ball.
Theresa’s most satisfying work was being a homemaker, being a mother, and doing the Lord’s work. Theresa served as the Pianist at Judson Baptist church for over 50 years. She also served as President of the American Baptist Women, Sunday school teacher and for many years as Bible School Superintendent, and Craft Director. Her favorite hymns are, “Amazing Grace” and “Others.” Her favorite scripture was “Do unto others as you would have them do to you” Luke 6:31. She will be sadly missed by all who knew her.
