Auntie,
You have been my greatest teacher. You have taught me so many things, and we have shared so many precious moments that it would take my lifetime to recall. You took me in and showed me what unconditional love means.I will miss you every day.Thank you for supporting, loving, protecting, and taking care of me my whole life. Everything you have done has meant so much. You helped my mother raise and mold me into the person that I am. Thank you for giving me a beautiful childhood and life and for teaching me what it means to forgive and grow as a person. For everything I thank you, but especially I thank you for being my parent. I love you with all of my heart.
Always your Baby,
Keshia-Aynne

Many times we shared this thought from II Corinthians 4: We are hard pressed on every side but not crushed;perplexed but not in despair;persecuted but not abandoned;struck down but not destroyed . Therefore we do not loose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away,yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far oughtweighs them all. so we fix our eyes not on what is seen but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary,but what is unseen is eternal. It is my hope you are blessed with peace day by day with the lessons Louise shared in her travels in the now here. Tony Maker

I see these photos of you now and it makes me sad to know I won't see you again in this life. I think I will remember your smile most of all - the way your face would light up when you smiled - even in sickness. I will remember your kindness to others - you were a friend to everyone you met. You were accepting of all of my friends...all people...and all animals. You were a savior to a very young child who was so happy to be in a home where she was loved. Despite whatever struggles we may have endured, you were my mother. I am who I am, in part, because of you.

I am very sorry for your loss Kristin. I am praying that God will comfort you during this journey through the valley of the shadow of death. Remember though that God has promised to make you lie down beside the still waters, to lead you in paths of righteousness for His name's sake, so take time to rest and allow yourself to be led by His mighty right hand at this time. May God surround you with His love and keep evil far from you. (A Celtic Blessing)

Kristin, although we didn't meet Louise, we know that she no longer suffers and she rests in the glorious hands of God now. You are in our thoughts and prayers, always. Bob, Betty, Tracey and Tracie. Tulsa, Oklahoma

While only knowing Louise a short time, the light in her eyes was joyously evident when her children and grandchildren came to visit. Her pain is gone now and she is truly in a better place.

May God bless the family and provide strength to them for every struggle they went through making Louise as comforable as possible in her final days.

Bye, Mom, we will always miss you! Love, Pam.
