To Peaches' Family: She was a truly gifted and talented artist who not only had mastered her craft, she had a gift for loving and befriending others that made her a special person. Her drive, entrepreneurial spirit, and personal class and style set her apart as one of Bakersfield's best. I feel fortunate to have known her and to have been a recipient of her talent as a client. May the wonderful memories of joyful times together overtake your sorrow as you celebrate a life well lived, in which she accomplished many of her dreams and goals. I pray that you will soon feel the peace, joy, and comfort that only God can give.

We are going to miss those big beautiful eyes and your style of nothing but class that you exemplified while here on this earth for such a short time. I learned just by watching her work ethics that on can be a sucessful business person and treat people with kindness and still make a decent living. You had it all which included your beautiful family you left behind. I am glad that she dedicated her life to Jehovah God. He is the only one that has her true life's destiny in his hands. I loved her welcoming spirit and will surely miss her presence in the professional business of beauty/hair arena. Rest on my friend until Jehovah releases you back on a cleansed earth free of sickness and wickedness. People should really recognize this truth. I know you believed that. I believe it too!

I HAVE TRULY BEEN BLESSED TO HAVE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK WITH ONE OF THE BEST PRO.HAIR STYLIST. FOR THE SHORT PERIOD OF TIME THAT WE HAD TOGETHER, I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT SOFT VOICE ASKING" YALL NEED ANYTHING? YALL ALRIGHT ? YOU SURE?" I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT I LEARNED ALOT FROM PEACHES IN JUST THAT SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. I WILL NEVER FORGET THE ADVICE SHE GAVE ME NOR THE WORDS OF INCOURAGEMENT. SHE WAS A WONDERFUL WOMAN AND WILL TRULY BE MISSED. GOD BLESS

A Designer’s Touch
(A Family Dedication)
A creative mind she received from HIM, the True Designer of all things.. he made her.
Her shop’s aura reflected the foremost one of his beautiful qualities namely love.
In the heat of her earthly battle, Satan gave up because he couldn’t rob her of her hope for an earthly resurrection because...
One day as he promised, she will walk out of Sheol to meet her loves where they are...
By study, she learned this from the Bible and dedicated her life to Jehovah the True Designer whose presence was so close, as he sits in the distance afar…
In this life, she was richly blessed! But, no one could have guessed the challenges to endure. The adversary thought he’d beaten and conquered her as she fought bravely on... Through many ceaseless prayers daily, the Designer stationed his hand on her and kept her from wavering she continued to reflect on his strength to be strong!
So Be Strong beautiful family, continue studying by opening your hearts and let Jehovah God’s spirit do its work.. Never give up in times of struggle. Reflect on the Designer’s loving son Jesus for integrity, and let time keep weeding away this dreadful hurt...
Remember today, this time… is only temporary and not a lifetime... for the permanency of things to come is so really close and just around the bend.
As John 5: 25-29 states that the earth will soon release all loved ones entombed to repopulate the earth again..
With humble & bowed hearts let us all thank the True Designer Jehovah God for giving us this hope to really live yet once more again! Like children laughing and sliding down a steep grassy hillside, let’s all be happy for peace today…. and not sad..
Jehovah, the True Designer’s plan is already in the making and his draft has been fully inspected and checked... The Designer touched and guaranteed this bible truth & yes family… we will meet up again in the Paradise of Peace just as Jehovah, the True Designer said! Lovingly Contributed To My Beautiful Niece Peaches & family

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
