You always lit up the room. Your jokes your huge smile your big tight bear hugs and you beautiful laugh. You loved everyone and everything. I guess God wanted you home with him and ended your suffering. You will always be missed, loved, and never forgotten. You will always have a special place in my heart. Love you !♡♡♡
