Ms. Ida,
My dearest step-mom. She was absolutely one of the sweetest, kindest souls I've ever met. Ms. Ida was a Godly mother who loved all of her children. I wish I had stopped by to see her sooner. She will never be forgotten. My sincere condolences to the family. Sending love and a zillion hugs. I hope you feel them all.

Our family, wants to exstend our deepest condolences to Ida´s family. We feel your grief and know the void her passing will create for us all. As neighbors of hers, for over forty years, she was a true friend and pivotal part of our family life. Her kindness was always a blessing to others on our block. It is with great sadness that we have to lose her presence. We will continue praying for you all and will be here if needed. Just a call away. Love you all. May the Lord give you strength and comfort.
