To Ms B & family,
We are so very sorry for your loss. As one ancient legend goes, Maybe the stars in the sky are our loved ones looking down on us from Heaven to let us know that they are OK; that they are happy & not suffering; and maybe they continue to help look out for us.

REMEMBERING MA DEAR

The perfect and unconditional love we seek in the world will always remain outside our grasp; the love of the world will always be withheld unless we meet its exacting and changing criteria. Only the love of God and the love of a mother are perfect and unconditional. Your mother's love was the one constant, the one absolute, the one rock upon which you could all stand and the safety net that protected you from ever totally falling or failing. She faced all challenges that life had for her. Love is what your mother was and what your mother did. She was simply and profoundly your mother. She gave you strength in your moments of weakness, waited patiently for you and offered you words of wisdom when the cruelty and injustice of the world pained your heart: "God doesn't sleep," she would say. There is no need for us to canonize or enlarge her life. She fulfilled her destiny simply by doing what God brought her into this world to do. She is enlarged and glorified and no power on the earth has the ability to bestow any greater crown. A simple and uncomplicated person, she made heroic sacrifices on behalf of her family. She did without, so you could have, she stayed so you could go, she lived through you and for you. Like Mary, the mother of Jesus, she was always there, to congratulate you when you succeeded and to comfort you in your times of despair. Every hurt upon your hearts or joy in your accomplishments were magnified a thousand times in hers. Over the years others wandered into your lives and they became extended parts of your family, and they were like her sons and daughters. Now without notice, those days have slipped from your grasp. She had a special bond and love for her mother. Now they are together again, but your mother is at rest. Your mother is gone from you and for the first time in your lives you are left to look out for yourselves, but you are really never alone. For she left you in the hands of JESUS. And most of all SHE left her love with you in your hearts.

WITH LOVE AND SYMPATHY,

To The Holloman & Pierre Family

God saw you getting tired,
When a cure was not to be.
So He wrapped his arms around you,
and whispered, "Come to me".
You didn't deserve what you went through,
So He gave you rest.
God's garden must be beautiful,
He only takes the best
And when I saw you sleeping,
So peaceful and free from pain
I could not wish you back
To suffer that again.

I know you are resting peaceful with the rest of the family.
