Grandma Gladys:
I remember the first day I met you after walking home with Timah from the bus stop. You were sitting on the porch, watching all the younger children play and yelling at TeeTee to come back down the hill. You always had your fly swater in your hand with your sweat suit on that aunt joyce always had matching. I'm going to miss you and when you get "up there", tell my granddaddy I said hello. I also remember after I met you, I wanted to hook you and him up!
Love You
"Eyeballs"

Dear Grandma,
I don't think there are enough words in the dictionary that will ever be able to describe the unconditional love that I have for you. I don't know where I would be right now if it weren't for you and I owe everything that I am and the woman that I've grown to be to you. I don't know how I will go on without you here to guide me, and fuss me out when I'm going astray but I want you to know that I love you more than anything in this world and I'm going to miss you so much and I promise to look after my mom for you.
Love You,
Fatimah (poodie)

TO MY FAMILY,WE ALL GONNA MIS OUR AUNT{GLADYS}.SHE WAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THING TO ALL OF US.she was a mother to all ,a mother's love is the most precious and forgiving commidity the world has to offer.even though there are times in life when we don't understand or adhere to the discipline that she lays down we know in our hearts that her love is unconditional and will always be there to carry us through the hurdles of childhood,angela, avis, arnetta, kim,cassandra,tasha,deon fatimah,svondai,vondai,donnesha, jermise,laporcha, keven,dell. BUT the uncertainty an indecisiveness of adulthood but once the security of a mother,grandma,aunt is only memerable by her absence,then is the time to reflect and remember how fortunate we were to have had a person of such impact to shape and mold us;life as well as the togetherness with family should be cherished and fulfilling for you never know when it will be taken away,so JOYCE,HORACE,MUD take time to reflect,remember and never forget the strong and necessary role that our aunt,grandma,mother,has play in all of our lifes.rest on aunt [GLADYS] i will meet you at the golden gates of heaven you earn your reward i'm sure gonna miss your beautiful smile.JOYCE,HORACE,MUD KEEP YOUR HANDS IN GODS HAND HE WILL LEAD YOU IN THE RIGHT PATH.
