I remember the day like yesterday, 10 years later, still feels surreal. To the Daniels and Pierce family, my prayers are with you. Hold on to Gods unchanging hand! Kerry, I applaud you for exemplifying what fatherhood is all about. You´re doing an awesome job with the boys! I know their guardian Angel "Mom" is smiling down, as she wouldn´t be more proud. I pray God continue to strengthen you and the boys, Laura, Kendra, Ms. Diane, and family. May he give y´all peace, that surpasses all understanding. Sleep Easy friend "90" continue to guard and protect your kings!

LITTLE DID WE KNOW THAT EVENING, GOD WOULD CALL YOUR NAME
IN LIFE WE LOVED YOU DEARLY, IN DEATH WE DO THE SAME
IT BROKE OUR HEARTS TO LOSE YOU, BUT YOU DID NOT GO ALONE
PART OF "US" WENT WITH YOU, ON THE DAY GOD CALLED YOU HOME...

How do you say good-bye to someone who was as kind, gentle, caring and PHENOMINAL as Shawanna "Nonnie" Pierce? Well I truly believe there are no good-byes only "see you later's!" I'm so glad I had the opportunity of being blessed with your presence as a friend and a co-worker for more than 20+ years.....Kerry may God give you the strength and guidance, patience and grace needed in the caring of your boys!!! To the triple K K K( son's luvin) Your mother is now and have ALWAYS been a STAR, so never worry nor be afraid of the darkness...Because that is when STARS shine their BEST!!! Last but not least to Ms. Diane, Laura and family TRUST IN THE LORD WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND LEAN NOT UNTO THINE OWN UNDERSTANDINGS; IN ALL YOUR WAYS ACKNOWLEDGE HIM AND HE WILL DIRECT YOUR PATHS!!!

Even thought i don't know u, u have my deepest sympathy. Death is always hard to deal with. Keep in mine that GOD doesn't make mistakes, he allows things to happen in our lives and we should never question it or ask why me, we should ask instead why not me LORD. Remebr on days when u r having struggles that GOD is there to help u through it all. Stay BLESSED and know that GOD will carry u through. I will keep u and your family in my prayers and even though it may seem hard and unbearable now. But even though it hurt just SMILE. Because i have heard that is what Nonnie would have done. I havwe read so many beautiful comments about her and I know just from what i have read that she was a beautiful person. So please keep her legacy alive with her beautiful children and know that shje is resting now and one day on that beautiful day of resurrection u will see her again. The LORD has not brought u this far to leave u, so put all your trust in him and let him guide your path.
