To my family in a time of memories,

I know right now its hard to imagine life with Grandma Audrey, she is a person that you figure would always be there. (I know I did.) Right now as I right this, I hear her voice saying something sweet or funny. I guess God said we had his Angel long enough and he needed her back, but he let her fill our life with a lifetime of memories that is instill with us forever. So, Grandpa, look to your right and grandma is still there. I know you can"t see her but her presence is always with you. Also, Pops, Uncle Irvin, Auntie Candra, June, and Lil Irvin you all didn"t lose yall mom yall gained a darn good GUARDIAN ANGEL.

LOVE ALWAYS TAKECIA & THE SMITH FAMILY

We would like to offer our deepest sympathy & prayers to the Hadley Family in their time of sorrow.

Mrs. Audrey to most but (mama) to me since day (1)one, from the first day Byron brought me home to meet his parents it was instant family we bonded so quickly, she maded me feel like I was one of them. I have so many GREAT memories that we've shared together and I will miss our little talks that kept up together. I will miss her so much, but God is the "Winner" he has an Angle up there with him, and I know she's in peace and she's smiling down on us right now like she always did. So for Daddy, Byron Sr, Irvin Jr and Candra keep y'all head up and a prayer in your heart cause y'all know that the way (Mama) would have wanted it.

Love y'all always.....Leotha

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
