Missing the smile on your face and the sound of your voice, It's been a whole year since you had to depart. Some days are good and some are bad; but, we give thanks to the Lord for the good times we had. Gone but NEVER forgotten.

Hey, Girl, just thinking about ya! It's the holidays, and you are not physically here to celebrate with us. I thought it would become easier as time passed, but it was your birthday and now the holiday season. I am sure you are keeping the angels smiling and warming their hearts, just as you did down here. There was a vigil at the hospital about a week ago, it brought back the memories from your last hospital stay. Until next time - God be with you and let "us" know you are just fine. Luv ya and Missing ya!!

To the Williams family,
I know the pain seems unbearable,however, I recommend to you a man by the name of Jesus. He will make everything alright. Tamara and I attended school together. It was a priviledge to know her. I can't recall a time when Tamara wasn't smiling. Tamara, make sure you give my grandmother a hug for me, and put in a good word for me with the Lord....and again to the family....may you be richly blessed

Psalm 121
1I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.

2My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.

3He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.

4Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.

5The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.

6The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

7The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.

8The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore


Tamara was such a joy to be around she will be missed by all. Ms. Barbara, refer to the above Psalm for one source of comfort. Love you guys for allowing me to be apart of your family! We will see her in the "Great Getting Up Morning!"
