Deepest Sympathy to the Family of Mrs. Barabra Boynton. I had the pleasure of working with her at Fort Benning Commissary. She was phenomenal woman, that loved God, her Family, and People. I am grateful for the times we shared at work. She will be greatly missed. I Pray during this difficult time, you can find solace in these words from II Corinthians 5:8 To be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. Praying for the Family.
