Oh, Candy we just talked last Saturday and you sounded so peaceful and well. But what I have learned over the years, that it's always quite before the storm. I will always have the fondness memories of you. Your love for life, singing, praying, playing, writing your poems, and the love you had for me, Angela, Jackie, and mom (Barbara Ransom. I remember all the awesome things that you did for me so that I wouldn't have to struggle so hard to provide for my family, and how you took my girls on vacations.You truly love me and showed me love so my memories of you my sweet cousin will never fade. You are in heaven with your entire family now and I know you are so happy being in the presence of your Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and singing the sweetest songs of love to your family. You can get up and walk, run and shout and for this I will rejoice with and for you. Kiss my family for me, and receive this final kiss from me my favorite cousin. Love you more.
