Mom, you have a grandbaby. She has your middle name (Mae) and I wish you were here to see her, but When she smiles in her sleep, I know she is talking to you & Papa. Just know that I am teaching her the Godly principles that you taught me.

Grandma I miss and love you so much.. I think about you alot , and I'm so sorry for the bad things I've done to you. Some things we take for granted , and I wish I could've spent more time with you . You are the reason I was raised and loved by a wonderful family. Queen I miss you so much , and tell grandpa I love and miss him too . Until we meet again my sweet angel.

Mom, dad... I miss you more than life itself and I believe that what I've done since your transition has made you proud. I honored what you instructed me to do and I await our union up there in heaven with Christ Jesus!

Mom, I will never forget the unconditional love you gave and I will continue to strive each day to keep the Godly principals you instilled in me at the forefront! Give Papa a hug for me and I will see you in God's speed.

Nelly,
I want to personally thank you for taking Mom, Bryan and I in as a part of your family. You and Paw Paw were those parents/grandparents that we needed. Although I am sad to even have to read this notice I know that our God is awesome and loves you more than we can ever love you.
To your children and grandchildren, rest in His grace in knowing that He has your Mom (2 Corinthians 5:8).
We love you!
