Oh my, how sad it is to here of your home-going.  I first met Mrs. Golightly when I was in high school at Marietta Christian School in Marietta, GA.  What a precious lady she was...Randy Cochran

Your mother was such an amazing lady and she touched so many lives throughout her career.  She was an amazing Christian and had a true Love for the Lord.  She will be missed and we send prayers to you during this difficult time.

Serenaded by angels, up to the throne
Serenaded by angels, finally at home
Surrounded by praises to the King
Welcome to paradise, the angels did sing!
No more suffering or pain for your mom.
Cherish the wonderful times with her and know you will see her again one day in heaven.
It has been years since I have seen her…but what I remember most is her love for her children.
May God give each of you peace and comfort for the days ahead.
With Sympathy,
Lila Dyer

One of the nicest ladies I have ever met. One of my favorite teachers at NFC, glad to have had her for 3 of 4 years for English

Randy, Phillip & Carolyn, know that our prayers go out to your family. Your mom was truly a special lady and to our family a very caring teacher. She taught 2 generations; Paul & Renee. She always had a smile for me when I helped at the school, and we will miss her. I am truly happy that she was able to know her grandchildren. Gods grace to you all.

Mrs. Golightly was truly an angel among us. She was so caring & so giving to each of us. She was and will always remain one of the very few teachers I ever truly loved. She was a light in this world and she was loved by us all. I imagine she's taking care of all the children in heaven. Afterall she took care of all of us like we were her own.

Such a happy, sweet, caring woman!  Carolyn, Randy and Phillip our thoughts and prayers are with you.

My condolences to the family and friends of Mrs. Golightly.  Carolyn you did a great job of writing the obituary. Though I am not there today I am there with you in spirit. May God grant all of you peace in this time of heartache. I love ya'll.

It was a privilege to be on the faculty at NFCS with Peggy. She was such a sweet and inspirational lady. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and we rejoice that she is now in the presence of the Lord she so loved.

Your mother was amazing!  I was truly blessed to have her in my life!  I will never forget that smile and caring voice that could make the worst of days seem bright

Such a sweet lady.  So sorry for your loss.  Please know her kind spirit affected many students over the years.

My deepest sympathies on the loss of this beautiful woman. May God grant you peace in your time of sorrow. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Randy, Phillip, and Carolyn, 
You are in my thoughts and prayers. Your mother and I go back over four decades and she played an important part in my life. She loved you all so very much. Be comforted in the fact that she is no longer suffering but is now at home with the Lord.

Your mother was a wonderful, warm, loving person. I am sure she will be missed by so many. We wish we could be there with you all but our thoughts and prayers continue to pray that God gives you all strength and understanding knowing she is in heaven now and no more suffering. Love to all.

I remember when Butch and Peggy came to teach in Marietta, GA years ago.  When I saw her again in Tallahassee years later, she hadn't changed one bit.  She was still the sweet, gentle soul she was then.  She will be missed.  We will keep you in our prayers.  Debra Snead Dutton, Pensacola, FL
