I know I didn't see you a lot, but I always knew you were there. You gave me your precious time every time I saw you, I already miss you knowing that now your loving presence is gone. Your going to be missed by all the little women and men you raised and by our family as well. Since I first met you have always remained one of the sweetest women in my life.
