She was the love of my life, and my best friend. I am thankful for the many great years we had, and will always be thankful to our God for our time together. I will ALWAYS love her, and think about her every day for as long as I live. She was a great blessing to me and all who knew her, especially all the children who she loved so dearly. I hope that all who knew her will rejoice in her salvation and life everlasting. We will see her again, but not yet.
