Mom, you are STILL very special to me. I miss you dearly and I know you are with the Lord. We talked about this a few times as this day would come. I said, mom move over I want to go with you and you said, no son stay here and take care of your family. I will miss our 3 calls per day, taking you to dinner, making you smile and making you proud. Although my heart is heavy, I find solace in knowing you are with your parents, sister, brother and a host of friends. As I drop tears right now, I miss you, I love you and there will never be anyone to replace you. One day we will meet again and I will hold your hand and love on you and cook you a big ribeye steak and lobster. One of your favorite. :-) I love you mommy. Roy Jr.

When I think of a Special Gift from God, I think of your mother, Martha. She sowed seed into the lives of all who crossed her path. I will always remember her for the love she demonstrated to her family, her giving spirit to her family/friends, and her desirer to nurture all whom she loved. She truly was a blessing to the Body of Christ and a loving Godmother to my daughter, Cookie. Forever, in our hearts until we see her again!

Love, Minister Sheila Whiting & Family
