Lida was truly one of a Kind, a spitfire nonetheless, spunky, outgoing, smart, beautiful, strong, she worked hard and loved being the vice President of Texas patrol. Her lifelong dream was to be a care flight pilot; she landed care flight earned her gold wings and was pursuing on with school in 1998 the year I was born. To top that she loved being a mother, Granny and NanaMa. Those 3 words are her greatest accomplishments and to watch her talk about her family her eyes glistened and her whole body beamed with love for us. She took pride in knowing that her husband would be proud for pushing on through all the years without him and all the trials and triumphs we managed to get through as a family. She wanted us to remain strong and not lose ourselves and leave each other. But a family like ours, we will get through this we always find ways to, might not be today or tomorrow. But we will be able to cope, emotions will come in waves, losing someone this special doesn't get easier, we are going to have to remember who she was a how she was and pursue on with it. Holidays and birthdays and life live it how granny would live it, but knowing that she is no longer in pain, free of sickness, free of burdens, Free with big, beautiful angel wings with the love of her life.

Lida loved her family, her eyes twinkled every time she bragged about them to people, we know and strangers. She is the heart and soul of our family. The love she gave was unconditional, consistent, pure and full of emotions. To be loved by her and to know her you were one lucky person. She loved her grandchildren with every beat of her heart. Any of us were lucky to have a mom, granny and NanaMa like her. She would give her life to make sure we were taken care of, and she did better than any woman or person I know. My pawpaw passed away and she continued to live on and push on raising her grand kids and being the best mom and granny to all of us she could be. in all of our eyes she exceeded that. I am glad I grew up and started my family, and she was able to be a part of my family growing. She was there in hospital rooms, dr appointments, field trips, school activities, sports, all of our births and my children's births, birthdays and holidays were always top tier and one of a kind. She never missed a beat with being the best she could no matter how she felt she always did 360 circles around all of us, and we are the younger ones. I am honored to be named after her and honored to have picked a middle name with my beautiful granny for my last baby Mac. My babies will never forget you, our babies will never forget you, your name and memories will always be shared every day of the rest of our lives.

She always stayed active, a part of everything and loved being outside and she loved her plants and her bonus daughter Patsy Lynn , she was in her own words "her bestest friend in the whole world" She could throw down in a kitchen from her famous mashed potatoes, homemade Frito pies, homemade chocolate pies , her famous banana nut bread/cakes all the way down to her home cooked meals. Every meal she made was made with her love.

To know her was to love her, a stranger was never the case she treated everyone with respect and love and taught all of us to do the same. All of my friends growing up knew her as granny she was everyone's granny she included everyone in everything and the love was astonishing. The best part of my life was having her and my pawpaw raise me, if it wasn't for them, I don't know where I'd be. But God am I grateful to have gotten to have the best mom in the world and she's been more than I could ever hope and pray for as a NanaMa to my kids. She is the grandest and greatest of them all. Today maybe excruciating on all our hearts because today is one of the worse days to come for someone that is the Life of the family, the glue, the structure, the unconditional love no matter if we did right or wrong.

I hold rejoice, love, and happiness and relief that our dad/papa was waiting to grab her hand to walk side by side again in their eternal home no longer in pain and all the love to be made up until we meet again. Heaven gained the greatest woman I've come to meet in my 27 years of life, and I am so grateful to have had her by my side my whole life and I know when the wind blows and flowers sparkle and butterflies flutter, she is near. I know that she will be with us throughout the rest of our lives because someone that wonderful don't just disappear. Her wise, kind, nurturing, and blunt words will stay locked in our heads and all the beautiful memories we shared throughout life with her will never disappear. I look at all of you and she is in each one of you. Honor her by her love and patience, and what would granny do in this situation? Keep her memory going, don't stop what she would have done, don't stop loving and living she sure didn't. She made each day count she started early in the mornings and went until late at night. She wouldn't want us to drown. Put your big boy pants on buttercup, and let's all make her proud and keep her memory alive. She wouldn't miss a beat, so we aren't.
