"Life, like a mist, appears for just a day,

Then disappears tomorrow.

All that we are can quickly fade away,

Replaced with tears and sorrow.

If a man should die, can he live again?"...

It is with sincere and heartfelt sympathy, that we announce the passing of Mr. Booker Thomas Leary, Jr. , who went to be with Jehovah on Monday, December 09, 2019 at the Vidant Chowan Hospital, Edenton, NC.

DJSMFH staff has assisted and will continue to assist the Leary Family through sincere, compassionate and personalized services . Please continue to uplift the Leary Family through words of comfort, hug, thought or just a smile!

"He will call; The dead will answer.

They shall live at his command.

For he will have a longing

For the work of his own hand.

So have faith, and do not wonder..."
