Imogene was a member of Roswell Street Baptist Church for over 40 years and volunteered 30 years at Eastside Baptist Church in the Christian Activity Center. After relocating to Florida she lived at Augustine Landing Retirement Home where she was very active and attended Crown Point Baptist Church. Imogene will be missed by many, but we all have the promise of seeing her again in the presence of our most high God. One of her favorite scriptures was, "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." John? ?3:16
