Mom, I am so lost without you.I think of you constantly and am so very lonely. No one has ever loved me like you. I want to talk to you and hear your laugh. I wish I could just lay my head on your lap or have you run your fingers thur my hair, and since I know those warm feelings of your loving touch are gone... I am empty. Love you so much Bonnie

Grandma was the one of the best people that anyone could ask to have in their life. She was kind, sweet, and was always there when you needed her. No, matter what time of day it was. She was a very special person and always will be. She was loved probably more then she needed or wanted. I love you Grandma. And, I know you will always be watching over all of your family and friends. Until we meet again you'll always be in my thoughts. And, don't worry I will make sure Carizma remembers everything about you. Kiss, Hugs, and Love.

But I'm thankful for the time we did have. I love you soooo much and I hope you know that. Even though I wish u were still here with me, I know ur in heaven walking the gardens and I know you're a beautiful angel! Rest In Peace mommy! I love you.

Grandma,
I have so many things I want to say but I will keep it short. You were the one who kept it all together when it came to us. You were always there for me and mine when I needed anything from a little bit of gas money to a shoulder to cry on or just an ear to listen to me vent on the world. You can never be forgotton and will always be missed greatly. You left so many memories behind that it would be hard to forget anything about u. I also hope one day we all get to find the kind of love you and grandpa had because I hurt so deeply when he whispered in your ear all the things he had to say. I could almost feel his pain of losing you. I will do my best to take care of the family and keep them together. I am proud to have your name for a piece of mine, because of where it came from and how much you have meant to me and all of the family for so long. I will also try and keep grandpa out of trouble...thats a big job but someone has got to do it...Might as well be me! I love you so very much and this world wont be the same for any of us now, but we will be ok one day because you are watching over us always. I will see u in my dreams and when I join u later in heaven.

To all the people who have left comments for the family and been there for us thru all of this. It is greatly appreciated. Thanks for your support!

Cecil and Larissa and the rest of your family, May you find comfort in knowing that Kay is now truly at rest and I am sure she is looking down on each and everyone of us. May God keep and bless her until we all meet again. May God's mercy be with all your family and give you peace and comfort as He eases your sorrow and fills your heart with fond memories.
