There are some women that ask for respect and then there are others like MA Willie that just oozed respect, she need never ask She just commanded respect be given. I remember late nites of laughter, now u can tell us whats the hookup at the pearly gates although you didn't need it you had a key. I am sorry that I missed some of those lemon cakes that you cooked but I know the last bits of wisdom you had were shared with me and Sharere we did not know that that was what it was, we just thought we had the party room at the hospital. What I would give to here your laugh or to see you take my man, my doctor and anything else that you wanted and did it ladielike till the end. I love you and I know that you are in a better place. Keep smiling for me, so I know how to get to where you are.
Always,
Tamikah
