To the Armstead Family we extend our deepest sympathy on your loss of your mom and grandmother, Queenie. I met her more than 20 years ago when she worked in the hospital and over the years I got to know her outside of the hospital. She not only believed in Almighty God but she showed it in her actions towards others, she was indeed, a very helpful and kind woman. Queenie touched the lives of many and will be missed very much.

To Beverly and all,
Beverly I have known you for over two years now and I have heard the loving ways you talk of your mother. It is very hard losing a loved one but mothers are always harder. Keep in mind she is in a better place now, up there with the angels. She doesn't hurt and she can always see you all. Just take one day at a time and remember you have a lot of friends to lean on.
