Ok we are on year 9 without you, gosh I really think about you, all the great stories from you and your brothers, like setting the woods on fire. You were a hoot. All your kids are doing good, we still see each other, so glad your bond is strong your kids are so strong too. We love you, and will forever. Best mom ever

Been 8 years, really not any easier. To know she is at a happy place with her son and my brother Tommie. Makes my heart lighter. Still think youre going to call every Friday dont think that will ever go away. All your kids are doing well. We miss you something terrible but know your in heaven and your safe and happy. All my love
Your middle child.
