Grandma Riggs,
Our legacy in life is how we impact those around us. I never got to really know the amazing woman you are, except through the stories of you passed on by your children and grandchildren. But I do know that you passed on kindness and faith and that you must have had those in abundance. Thank you for raising a wonderful grandmother to my children and through her, a loving father to my children. I wish you peace on your journey.

We laid my grandmother to rest today. The world lost a wonderful person but heaven gained an angel. She is now looking over our family from above with Jesus. I love you and look forward to seeing you again.

Our family send our love and thoughts!

A heart never forgets those that have touched it. You opened your home and heart to our family and my father. For this I will always love you. May you rest in eternal peace with the Lord!

My beautiful granny!! You will always be in my heart. I'm glad your with grandpa!!

Aunt Luisa,

May you rest in peace with the Lord. You are with your family now with Aunt Eliza & Aunt Zulema & Aunt Janie & your father Luis too. You suffered a lot in the end but now you suffer no more.

You were my Godmother & there for me when I needed you.

God Bless you,
Pamela Wiltshire
