So many memories... I don't know if I have a first ... My mama was the most loving kind caring humble person I've ever known. People tell me often how big my heart is and I have to say that is something my mom gave me. She taught me how to love and care and she gave me some of the best qualities I have. She was amazing in every way... She was the one that was always there for me no matter what.... Even when I didn't deserve her she never left me and I never left her... I will miss her and think about her every day of my life until I'm reunited with her. I miss you so much mama... Love ur Sammie

Chats at the fence, weird food mixes in the kitchen, mix tapes, and ACDC. I will never forget. Rest in peace my beautiful friend. Give our moms a hug for me.

Ginger's eyes were always smiling when I saw her. She made the day a little brighter with her warm eyes and kindness. Her light will shine on in all the lives she touched. I hope Ginger's loved ones can find comfort in the memories shared.

She had such beautiful brunette hair with beautiful curls around her face. She was always smiling and she was so sweet.

Ginger and I went to Saline schools together. Her locker was near mine. She was a J and I was a K, lol! She was always kind and sweet. We were all so happy she and her husband could come to our class reunion last August! She will be missed. Prayers for peace and comfort for her husband and the rest of the family.
