Everyday for the rest of my life I will think of you. You were the strongest, kindest, most loving person I know. I have SO many fond memories that I will treasure. You loved gardening, watching hummingbirds, peacocks, playing cards, just to name a few. You loved feeding everyone that came by to visit. You will be sadly missed by everyone's life you touched. Love you more mama.

I miss you so much maw-maw. I can't even believe I'm reading your obituary right now. I wish we could turn back time, but I know that you you are in a better place. Give all of our loved ones a big kiss for us. I know that you are seeing everything in heaven now and that puts a smile on my face!!! I know that you have that beautiful smile on your face and you are watching over us. Now it's time for you to sing and dance with the angels, play in the garden, and catching up with all your loved ones. You lived a wonderful life for 90 years. God will take good care of you because you have a heart of gold. Rest in peace my heart until we meet again!!! #1 grandma and my beautiful guardian angel. Keep smiling that smile
