To a beautiful soul,
I am absolutely heartbroken to hear of your passing.
You were never "just" my mother-in-law - you were a mother figure to me in every sense of the word. During a time in my life when I needed kindness, patience, and unconditional love, you gave it freely and without hesitation.
You welcomed me with open arms, a warm heart, and a gentle spirit that made everyone around you feel loved, seen, and cared for. Even after your son and I went our separate ways, your kindness toward me never changed. That speaks volumes about the kind of woman you were - loving, compassionate, and full of grace.
I am devastated that I wasn´t able to see you one last time or attend your services. Being out of state made this loss feel even heavier, and my heart aches knowing I couldn´t be there to honor you in person. Please know that you were deeply loved by me and will always hold a special place in my heart.
Thank you for the love you showed me, the memories we shared, and the way you made me feel like family when I needed it most. You will never be forgotten. Rest peacefully, beautiful soul!!
My thoughts and prayers are with all of Iris´s children, grandchildren, and loved ones during this difficult time.
With a heavy heart and so much love,
Jenese
