Aunt Jeanette,I will always cherish the memories we have together forever.Growing up,I remember the times that my mom,dad and family spent with you,uncle Robert and your family. If, we were not at your house, you all were at ours. Over the years as I lost loved ones in my immediate family, you and uncle Robert were always there for us. I will never forget those times when I had your shoulder to cry on when I lost my brother's Eric and George, my dad and my sister. Those were hard times for me, my heart was filled with pain and my eyes were filled with tears. I thank you for always being there for me.I love you aunt Jeanette, no one will ever be able to take your place in my heart. You will be greatly missed. Love you, Always, your niece Teresa Thompson Carnes. P.S. I love you,Sonya, Jay & Robbie.
