My little Miss Minnie!!!
She will be dearly missed.
Even though I've only known her for the last 10 years, I feel like she's always been a part of my life. What a woman: strong, loveable, funny, enduring. I thought she would live forever. Some of my fondest memories are: hearing her call out to me to come over, my teasing her about getting her with the switch, her commenting on how the bush needed trimming so she could see out her door, how she use to say that I was bouncing about, getting to know her family.
What a large family!!
Things will not be the same without her. The last words she said to me was: "I love you too." That was because I told her that I loved her.
And I always will.
Love, Denise Parham
