A very wise woman that has taught people to love one another. I only knew her for a short time in her life but wish it could have been longer. She was full of wisdome and had lots of love to give. She will be missed by many and we were so luck to have her in our lives. We love you and will miss you. You will always be in our hearts and thoughts.

I love you! You were the world to me. You were the best mom ever! You were such a loving, caring, and giving person. We will all greatly miss you. You had a heart of gold. There are not enough words to express how I feel.
I love you Mom!

My beautiful Grandma! What a woman. Words can't really express what a remarkable lady she was. She was beautiful inside and out. She had many wonderful qualities such as: Great faith in the Lord, generosity, love, integrity, and honor. I hope I can grow to be half the woman she was. She was my favorite person in all the world. And she will forever be in my heart. I look forward to the day I see her again!
Love you Grandma!
