YORKTOWN - Carolyn Dail Skinner, 83, passed away peacefully at her home on Saturday June 13, surrounded by her loving family. Carolyn, known affectionately as "Momo Carolyn," was a proud native of North Carolina and a peninsula resident since 1953. She graduated from Newport News High School in 1954 and retired from the Commonwealth of Virginia after many years of service. She was a faithful member of Bethel Baptist Church for over 50 years. She enjoyed boating and spending time on the water. She was known for her southern cooking, most notably her potato salad and deserts. After retiring, she enjoyed spending time and traveling with her friends and family, especially her grandchildren where she introduced them to life on the "rivah." Carolyn modeled Christianity in her actions and words and exemplified a life well lived. |

Trust and Obey
Lyrics by John H. Sammis, 1887
Music by Daniel B. Towner
When we walk with the Lord
In the light of His Word,
What a glory He sheds on our way!
While we do His good will,
He abides with us still,
And with all who will trust and obey.
Trust and obey, for there's no other way
To be happy with Jesus,
But to trust and obey.
Not a shadow can rise,
Not a cloud in the skies,
But His smile quickly drives it away;
Not a doubt or a fear,
Not a sigh or a tear,
Can abide if we trust and obey.
Trust and obey, for there's no other way
To be happy with Jesus,
But to trust and obey.
Not a burden we bear,
Not a sorrow we share,
But our toil He doth richly repay;
Not a grief or a loss,
Not a frown or a cross,
But is blest if we trust and obey.
Trust and obey, for there's no other way
To be happy with Jesus,
But to trust and obey.
But we never can prove
The delights of His love
Until all on the altar we lay;
For the favor He shows,
For the joy He bestows,
Are for them who will trust and obey.
Trust and obey, for there's no other way
To be happy with Jesus,
But to trust and obey.
Then in fellowship sweet
We will sit at His feet.
Or we'll walk by His side in the way.
What He says we will do,
Where He sends we will go;
Never fear, only trust and obey.
Trust and obey, for there's no other way
To be happy with Jesus,
But to trust and obey.
