I miss Ms Bates who was part of my life for 25 years who predicted my future so accurately that it was uncanny. She was always so wonderful to me and my family always picking up her phone on one ring and saying things right away about my future without a sound from my side. She could talk for hours. She certainly was a very cheerful lady who could for hours without a boring word!
She also told me she used to work with the FBI with her clairvoyance .
She was my mentor and my Reverend.
She used to say “ I walk with God and walk by still waters” which till now I could not fathom what she meant. I did ask her what she meant but she would never tell me!
I could never interrupt her when she was talking because that would interrupt her thoughts .
I always wanted to fly to Texas to meet her but never could and now I really miss her more than ever. I hope to meet or talk to her family one day.
My thoughts about Ms Bates will never go away.
My prayers for her lovely soul and now she is with God.
Dr. Sharma MD

So very very sad to hear this. The world has lost a great soul.
Rev. Bates was a source of comfort and wise counsel .
The world suddenly seems a colder darker place without her in it.
God bless her soul with endless peace and joy in the hereafter.
Thank you Rev Bates for gracing this world with your presence.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Reverend Bates family. I will fondly remember Reverend Bates as a kind loving and thoughtful person who lived an extraordinary life with such love for God. Reverend Bates helped me throughout the years and gave me a whole new outlook on issues in my life that made it much easier to understand. She was a remarkable lady and will be dearly missed.
