Mommy there is not a day that goes by that I don't shed a tear for you. Your baby girl misses you like crazy! You were my best friend, counselor, teacher, role model and so many more things. We talked 5-10 times a day so the silence of your voice is very loud now. Just glad your suffering, worrying and troubles are over. Rest easy my love till we meet again! From your daughter Kitty-Boo

To: The Family of Portia Alane Watson:
I was blessed to have known Portia, she had a kind and loving spirit, a person who loved God, her family, friends and who enjoyed life. Portia is from a family that truly know the Lord, and I have witnessed the strong faith, love, and praises to the Lord even during this trying time. God's word say's " I will never leave you nor forsake you" and that Joy cometh in the morning" Keep the faith and know that God has blessed us with so many blessings and one of the blessings is "wonderful memories: that no person can ever take away, so until God allow us to meet our love ones continue to have faith and stay strong in his Word.
"For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord. My prayer to each of you is that you will find comfort and peace in the Lord.
Love you all!
