Momma,
One year has gone by since your transition. I miss you so much but I know you are not suffering anymore. My heart is broken but I know joy will come in the morning.
You are my special angel and I am forever grateful to God that He has allowed you to be in my soul and to watch over me until we are united again.

Love and miss you so much,

To my cousins, Amy,Pauline, and Nelda, we will Miss Aunt Juanita, but we have a lot of great memories. When I think of her I remember a lot of laughter, and great fun,lots of good music, along with fantastic food, because she was a great cook. She will be truly missed and I know she is dancing and enjoying her family in heaven. Love you all.

Amy, Pauline & Nelda,

We are sorry to hear about the passing of our 'Second Mom'

It seems like yesterday when we were all 'sitting on the porch' having fun family times together.

Ms. Rose is with God now and 'HE' will keep his arms wrapped around each of you.

OUR LOVE TO YOU ALWAYS
