m0m m0m its me trish again i wish u where hear i need you in my life right now things arent going so greeat please watch over me and brian jr and layla we need it i wrote this poem for you it isnt the best but it came from my heart i love you and miss you !
I think about you all the time,
And everyday it hurts to cry.
So much has happened in my life,
I'm not sure how hard to try.
Tears are falling constantly,
My heart hurts everyday.
I think about your beautiful smile,
That I pray I see again someday.
The sweet smell of your perfume,
Has slowly faded away.
But all your helpful teachings,
Are always here to stay.
I can't express how much you taught me,
So much I can't explain.
All the times I can remember,
Never once heard you complain.
So many hearts were broken,
The day God called you home.
It seems as though each one of us,
Were left to survive alone.
I know there was a reason,
That you had to leave.
To keep us in your watchful eyes,
So now in God I really do believe.

I will miss you dearly and i will hold you in my heart always.I am so blessed to have had you in my life all these years.Today my heart is broken,the tears won't end,but with the love you have left me it will mend.

Mrs. Shirley,
You always would tell me that i am one of God's miracles, to make it through all the hardship was a miracle. My miracle was being able to spend time and share memories with someone so humble, caring, and naturally selfless as yourself. Although, I married into your family, you made me feel like one of your own grandchildren. You always gave me hope when life seemed unbearable and for awhile it seemed just that. You said "Mike have faith, it seems hard, but God has a plan for you and he will take care of you." Looking at my daughter today, Ava Faith, I believe that now more than ever. Mrs. Shirley you are and will always be my angel. All your prayers, I believe honestly, have made not only my life but my daughter's life possible. Thanks for the love and support, I will never forget you. I will make sure my daughter grows up to know who her Mom-Mom Smith was and how her prayers and blessings made all this possible. Love you, Mike

Sissy,
We love you and you will be deeply missed. I will miss picking up the phone to hear your voice. You were always there for me when I needed your help. You will always be an angel. Thank you for always loving me and my family. I can't imagine life with out you in it. Just knowing you are with jesus and your loved ones is the only thing that will get the family through this sad time. I will see you again one day and until then I will always remember you. Thank You for always being there for me. I Love You.
Love you forever,
Kevin and Paula

Sissie
I will never forget you, you will always be a part of me. I am so happy I had you for seventy one years. You were a mother to my children Debbie, Eric, Kevin and Britney. You were always there when I needed you. I can still remember the times we spend together with mommie and grandmaw. They were some of the most special time. Nerveless, you were a special person that I could depend on for pray. Your genuine sprit touches a lot of people on this earth. The last couple months were extremely hard for me since I had to prepare myself for your departure to heaven. The moments we spent together will always be in my heart. Thank you for being a great sister and my best friend I will always love you until we meet again in heaven.
Love Elaine

It saddens me so the hear of Mrs. Sissy's passing. Now she is in heaven with Mr. Billy. My deepest sympathy to Cindi, Kimmy, Lori, Billy and Ricki and each of their families. Love you all Susan Brady, Christipher, Brian and Travis.

Family---- My prayers and thoughts are with you. It was difficult to see Billy go and now your mom. She had a rich, full life and her faith and family to see her through.

Mom, I am so lost with your passing, words will never express my deep sorrow. I have been truly blessed to have had such a wonderful Mother. In life you never had much in the material world but could make everyone around you feel like they were the richest person in the world. I remember all of the joys and sorrows that you went through but can honestly say - that your faith in God carried us through. It is so hard to believe that cancer ravaged a body that had such a sweet and beautiful spirit. My only consolation is that you are now in Heaven with the Lord and Daddy. My life will never be the same because you were such a big part of everybody's life and the rock of our family. I love you so much and will dearly miss you.
Love,
Cindi

Mom-Mom,
I love you so much and you will be missed dearly. Words cannot express how much you mean to me. I sit here writing this with tears streaming down my face – tears of both sadness and joy. I shed these tears of sadness knowing that we will never be able to talk or spend time together here on earth, but I shed these tears of joy because I am so fortunate to have had you in my life—I am so thankful everyday – and know that we will meet again in heaven. I have so many special memories together that I will cherish forever—camping, our little day trips, going out to eat…and not to forget that you were the best babysitter there ever was. You were always there for me no matter what…to love, comfort, encourage, laugh, the list can go on and on. When things were not going well, I could always call you and we would pray together. I am so glad you had the chance to meet our little miracle – Ava Faith. She is definitely one of our answered prayers. I can rest assured knowing you are in heaven. I love you so much and you will always be in my heart.
Love,
Krystle
