God had you here to watch over us, to make sure we made all the right decisions. Now God has taken you away from us, sending you to a better place beyond life. It’s now our turn to see if we can make it without you but with you in our hearts and minds. Please grandma guide me and the rest of the family under your beloved wings. Thank you. I will always love you. And to those that kept my family in their prayers, sent flowers, cards, and etc, I thank you a lot. I just remember that God always takes the best first and that was Brenda Eley. Thanks "Your grandson LaTroy Faulk"
