James William Akin

James William Akin, affectionately known as Jimi, departed this world on May 23, 2025, in Montgomery Village, MD, surrounded by her beloved family. Born on October 26, 1952, in Dallas, TX, Jimi was a radiant soul whose big personality shone brightly in every room she entered. Her infectious laughter and vibrant spirit will be profoundly missed by all who knew her.

Jimi dedicated her life to enjoying every moment and spreading that joy to others. As a devoted mother, grandmother, and friend, she poured her heart into everything she did, ensuring that those around her felt the warmth of her love. Her greatest passion was helping animals, especially horses. Jimi's unwavering commitment to rescue and rehabilitation transformed countless lives, saving many equine souls from dire circumstances and finding them loving homes.

An avid lover of reading, Jimi would often immerse herself in cozy mysteries, sometimes devouring up to three books in a single day. She relished the simple joys of life, from movie nights filled with laughter and popcorn shared on the couch with her grandchildren to indulging in her favorite cartoons. Thanksgiving was a cherished time for Jimi—though she was not particularly fond of cooking, the warmth of family gatherings brought her immense joy.

Jimi's legacy is carried on by her loving daughter Jamie Clark, who partners in life with Austin McNamara, and her cherished granddaughters Kyla and Alannah McNamara. Together, they share countless memories of laughter, support, and adventure, reminding us all of the beautiful impact Jimi had on their lives and the lives of so many others.

In remembrance of Jimi, her family invites friends and loved ones to gather at Sandy Spring Friends School Meeting House on October 18, 2025, at 12pm, to honor her memory. As we come together, let us celebrate her life in whatever way brings us joy—whether it be donning our favorite funny t-shirts or dressing to the nines, the most important thing is to share our stories and memories of the extraordinary person she was.

Jimi is preceded in death by her beloved parents, James "Jim" Bolling and William "Billy" Akin, as well as her brother, John Akin. They, too, will forever hold a place in the hearts of those who loved them.

While Jimi has left this physical world, the spirit of her love, laughter, and kindness will continue to resonate in the hearts of her family and friends. As we remember her, let us carry forward her legacy of compassion and joy.

Albertha Marie Hewitt

Albertha Marie Hewitt; a remarkable individual, was born on November 15, 1940 and peacefully passed away on September 20, 2025. With a spirit that embodied resilience and determination, she made her mark through her dedicated career and enriching personal interests.

Albertha's professional journey began as a secretary at the Rockefeller Foundation, where she worked diligently for seven years. Her passion for service and detail led her to transition into the federal government, where she contributed her skills at the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare as an Accounts Payable Clerk. Her professionalism and commitment didn’t go unnoticed, resulting in a well-deserved promotion to Accounts Payable Specialist at the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). Though illness ultimately forced her to retire early, her unwavering spirit shone through as she navigated her challenges with grace.

Outside of her professional commitments, Albertha cherished her passion for reading, always eager to expand her knowledge until lupus impaired her vision. In her later years, she adapted to changing times and became an enthusiastic user of social media platforms like YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok, finding joy and connection through modern technology.

She loved the Lord and loved serving Him as a greeter and preparing communion at St. James A.M.E. Church. She was also a prayer intercessor and would wake early in the morning and pray for loved ones and people in need. She continued working in His kingdom when her job required her to move to Connecticut. Even when she wasn't able to attend church in-person, her Sundays were filled with watching her favorite ministries online.

Albertha is survived by her loving family: her sister Lori Francis, her son David Hewitt, her daughter Karen Hewitt and her son Gregory Hewitt, her daughter-in-law Joyce Hewitt, her niece Kenya Edwards, and her cherished grandchildren, Daniel Hewitt, Kiana Hewitt, Christopher Lynch, Kenny Welch, Sheneah Morine. She was predeceased by her mother Mamie Ferguson, her brothers Richard Hannah and Stacy Ferguson, and her sister, Vernell Ferguson.

Her legacy of resilience, love, and enthusiasm for learning will continue to inspire those who had the privilege of knowing her. Albertha Marie Hewitt will be deeply missed, yet fondly remembered for the meaningful impact she had on the lives around her.
