Well you know we had our little click (Nikki, Coretta, Sabrina, Mia, Pia, Tiffany, Lalita, and Andrea) we were tight and no one could come in between us. We celebrated in your honor last night. All we could talk about was how you always opened your home to any of us at any given moment and that damn Mickey Mouse. I love you girl!

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

I had the pleasure of meeting Mia thru Sabrina back in the day when they were in ponytails and braces. :-) I was able to see them mature and grow to become beautiful young women. I hadn't seen Mia in a while but I was sadden by the news of her death. May she rest in eternal peace.

To her family & friends:
1Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. 2In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

On behalf of the entire Allen family, we want to say Mia we love you and we will see you soon. To the family: Death is the last enemy we face, as we have the assurance that we shall see all of our loved ones who have died in Christ once again. The devil may have snatched them off this earth, but because they belong to God, He snatches them from the devil and takes them home with him. We will be reunited with them. Proverbs 15:3 The eyes of the LORD are everywhere, keeping watch on the wicked and the Good (Mia). You all are in our prayers!!!

To The Family,
We hold you in our hearts, thoughts and prayers. We share in your heartbreak and tears. May God continue to carry you through this difficult time and at some point bring you peace. While I didn't know Mia as well as others (thru work), it was obvious she was no ordinary woman. Her beauty (both internal and external) were immediately obvious. I'm blessed to have known her. I'm so very sorry for your loss. Hug and kiss the angels left behind often.
You and the children will remain in my Prayers.

"May the Lord Be With You, until you meet again. Til we reach that distant shore, and we shed a tear no more. May he give you strength to endure. Til you meet again."

I thank God for the opportunity to have met such an awsome young woman. I have known Mia for 7yrs. and we have shared some happy times, sad times, and even some mad times after all we were together everyday for 8hrs. One of my foundest memories of Mia is her pregnancies for such a small framed woman she had the biggest belly and the biggest babies. I will remember Mia for her "LIP GLOSS", Jay-Z, and Mickey Mouse. I have never seen anyone use lip gloss like Me-Me. I would loose mine long before I could ever use it up but not her she would buy 3 and 4 @ a time and could keep up with all of them. Mia, no matter how many times we may have disagreed, I want you to know that I love you, I will miss you, and I will think of you always. Tell my mommie I said hi...
