Last, but not Least
As Women’s History Month draws to a close, I’d like to finish with the Woman who led me to the Lord. …
Another Woman from Tonya’s History
Angeline Tucker is not a name most of you will recognize. I never knew her well although I did meet her in my early twenties. Her daughter and I taught together my first year of teaching. I knew her story, but we spoke of it only once. In the early 60’s, Sister Tucker, her husband…
Tonya’s Women History Month
March is National Women’s History Month. Talk shows and news reports will feature women whom society considers worth of remembrance.
