Hi sis, some people complain because god puts thorns on roses while others praise him for putting roses among thorns. god can heal a broken heart but he has to have all of the pieces. through the years that i have known you, you have always been there for me and my family. you took care of my mother during her most difficult times as if she was your own mother.and i will always love you for that. you will always be in my heart. love you forever

Your smile, words and last, but not least, your special hum..." ho, ho, ho, ho, ho" will be dearly missed. You are in hearts forever...may you rest in peace.



Love, your grandaughter

What is a blessing?

A blessing is something we ask God to give, like clothes and good food and a nice place to live.

A blessing is something that we try to do when we have to do something not easy to do.

A blessing is something God grants from above it's the nicest way he shows us his love.

God bless you and keep you in his arms always!



Love your great grand niece,

Taytianna Bonds

My heart is very heavy to know that you are no longer with us. You were always very kind to me by allowing me to spend so much time giggling listening to music, and having fun with Leslie while we were growing up. Thank you for sharing her with me, and making me feel welcome in your home, and fixin my TV. You were like a 2nd Dad to me. I miss the good ole days.



Much Love...always,

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

I love each of you and I am sorry for your loss. Gloria
