I never met Bambi in person but worked with her as a correspondent lender. She was always cheerful and helpful. Our loss is heavens gain. We had fun giving each other a hard time over football. I would say Roll Tide and she would say Geaux Tigers.

Your light will never diminish because it will continue to shine bright in each of your sons, Austin, Evan and Blake. To look at them is to see you at your best. You didn't know how to love a little bit, you loved unconditionally with all of your soul and would fight with all you had to keep it. I love you little girl, you grew up through a lot of tough times which made you the strongest woman with the most tender heart I've ever known. Your "-" was amazing, thank you for allowing me to be apart of your life. I will miss you, but I will see you again. Share some hugs for me.
