Words can not express how much I miss you Mammie. My heart hurts everyday, with every thought and memory. Some wish for just one last conversation, I just want you back forever. You will always be loved and you will definitely not be forgotten. There will never be another woman as strong, loyal,loving and amazing as you. I can strive to be just half the woman you were and will never come close. I love you so much. Rest easy Mammie, until the day we meet again. Your #1.....Punky.
