Everyone that met my mother knows she was a woman that was full of life. She was one of the most real and honest women you will ever meet. I am one of the luckiest people to have been born by you and hope I can find within me the strength, courage, and honesty you always tried to teach us. I will cherish my memories of you forever. I miss you momma, but I love you enough to know that it is time to let you be rewarded in heaven for all of the good you have done for so very many people and to be reunited with all you have missed for so long. We will always have you in our hearts. Thank you for being my momma.
