I love you Grandma! I miss you so much, words can't express how much I appreciate everything that you've done for me. Thank for the wisdom and knowledge, that I will cherish for the rest of my life. You left your mark on me with the music and the rhythm. Thank you for making me think I was David Ruffin when I was little, it shows how much you've poured into me. I still listen to the music because of you. I love you grandma and I can't wait until we meet again

Mom - I'm am so at a loss of words in seeing you transition on 8/23/17. I saw that you were getting tired and you held on and fought as long as you could. Though I am thankful you are no longer suffering, I have to honestly admit that a piece of my heart transitioned with you. I will always hold close the conversations and laughs that we shared. Your sacrifices for us were endless and I pray that you are wearing your crown proudly as you definitely earned every stone in it. I made a promise to you and as God gives me the strength, I will uphold it with every fiber of my being. I love you beyond words Mom and I hope I made you proud. Love you always and you will forever be "My Girl"! Your one and only daughter, Lisa

Those we love don't go away.
They walk beside us everyday. Unseen, unheard but always near, still loved, still missed and every dear.

My condolences to you and the rest of the family. No words can express what a person's heart is feeling. But just know that to be absent from the body, is to be present with the Lord. Heaven has gained another Angel. May you Rest in Heavenly Peace Cuz Peaches.
