Not a day goes by that I don´t think of you, this still feels a dream although reality is that it´s not. Our baby sister is no longer here and life is definitely not the same. I see your face when I close my eyes. I went through our text messages the other day and I just thought WHY did you leave like this. I know peace was your ultimate goal and you have it now and that´s all that matters. Tonya is having a rough time but she knows better than anyone you needed peace and because of that she celebrates for you. Tre is our main concern now and we will finish for him what you started. We´re gonna do right by him, just watch over him and guide him. I Love and Miss you FOREVER My BEAUTIFUL BABY SISTER

MzCarmen...
Now you know..
The times we would just call each other´s phone and just say
I just called to say I love you
Especially after a nicety experience that only we understood..
I miss you so much already
And am sooo grateful we were speaking
I love you forever
Yolanda & Tre´Parker
Rest easy my Baby...

In our hearts, your memory will stay.
Though you're gone, your spirit remains,
Guiding us through life's joys and pains.

"A gentle soul, a loving heart,
You left us too soon, we'll never depart,
From memories of your kindness and care,
You'll always be with us, beyond compare.

Rest in peace, dear aunt, may your journey be bright,
We'll miss you every day, but hold on to the light,
Of the love you shared, the laughter and the tears,
You'll always be in our hearts, through all the years."
