I was saddened when I heard the news of Mavis's passing but then I thought about how she was and how she is now; I was rejoicing and praising God because she is in the Hands of a Loving Father where there is no more sickness and suffering. She has her glorified body and if you could only see her now; she's walking streets of gold. If you thought she was pretty while here; you should see that big pretty smile she has on her face now. Don't weep as those who...

I send my thoughts and prayers to the family. Mavis was a wonderful woman, and I always really looked up to her. She always stuck right by me when I was in Sick Bay at Welborn and brought me mints to eat while we watched the Cosby Show together. She was so good to me and knew just how to make me smile. I loved her dearly. I haven't seen her in years, but she's always been in my heart.

Mama,
Losing you has been the most difficult moment in my life. You were more than my mama, you were my best friend. Most people dream of having the kind of mother that I had in you. We could laugh like silly teenagers but I could also depend on you to bring me back down to earth and show me the way to be a strong woman. You brought me up to be strong and independent like you. You were always there to help me with the girls when I needed it most. There's no way we will ever...
