I want to express my sympathies to the family of Minnie. I am a great grandson of Thomas J Looney who Minnie was married to for about 15+ years until TJ's death. I had a chance to visit with them when they pastored the Andrews, NC Church of God and she was a precious woman who loved God. She is home now. May God bless the family.

Minnie Looney, whom we affectionally called "Nooney" (a name given to her by our son Reed) was a dear friend. We met her when she married Brother T.J. and we loved her at first sight. My parents, Vernon and Versell Wood, had the honor of pastoring her family in Eden. Nathan, LaDonna... all of you are in our prayers. She will be greatly missed. Nooney, you had a grand reunion when you got to heaven. Some day we'll join you there! We love you dearly.

Dear Looney Family, I was so saddened to hear of your loss. "Nooney" was so special to all of us. I can still remember the days I spent at her home, even though I was only a small child. She was always so kind and loving to anyone she would meet. The world is a bit dimmer without her in it, but Heaven is just that much brighter. You are all in my prayers and I send you my love. Sincerely, Reed
