What can I say about my mother-in-law? She was my other mother, she loved me like I was her own. She didnt pull no punches she would tell me like it is when I needed it, but she would do it in love. She could throw down in the kitchen...color greens hot water cornbread, and sweet potato pies like no other. Momma I miss you so much all the wisdom you shared will always remain in my heart. Take your rest walk around heaven singing in the heavenly choir. Scripture says to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord! Love you forever and always.
