You are truly missed mom...never knew you was going home. May the Lord keep you in his arms. I know you feel like a new woman and I'm so glad you are there...tell the Lord I love him and keep our family safe. Mind that don't worry about Mike. He will be in my care now. But we miss you so much and love you dearly.....love you Nelly and rest peaceful....you will never be forgotten.
