Not sure what to say?

To Chardonay and her siblings,
There is no greater pain then that of when God takes a mother to her heavenly home. I can say, "I feel your pain." Stick together and keep doing what you know would make her proud. You all have your very own Mother Angel now.

My condolences to the family

I’m saddened by the loss of my niece and will miss her terribly, but you’ll never be forgotten and will remain in my heart forever.

You are resting up there with your mom, and your dad and so many other family and friends say hello to all of them ask them to keep watching over the family . (LOVE YOU TO PIECES) Auntie Marlene
