My precious Dionne



I Remember the day you were born. You were the most beautiful baby girl that I have ever seen. And you were a good baby too.Your growing up years were very normal and you never given me any serious problems. Being the only girl you were spoiled but that was alright also because it took some time for you to arrive on the scene. And I was so happy to have you. Graduration came around and then you made a life for yourself and your 2 kids and you did

a marvelous job. Your life touched a

lot of people because of your sweet and kind spirit. I love you very much and will truly miss you. My only consolation through this is knowing that you are free from pain and suffering and that you are in a better place.You passed from dealth into life because to be absent from the body is to be present with the LORD,and it can't get no better than

that. And so I end this message to you for now....not to say goodbye...but I rather say SEE YOU LATER.

Love you forever,

MOM

To: my Aunt Marion, Uncle Lee, cousin Darren, cousin Launice, cousins Tommy, Keith, Mark and Torry. I know this is a difficult time for you as it is for me, but we all know that DD is in a much better place (the bosom of Abraham) and she is happier now than she has ever been. She is one of the cloud of witnesses cheering us on and hoping that we all continue to walk in the fullness of God. I LOVE HER. I always have and I always will!!

I only have happy memories of all the Easters (getting our hair fixed) and Christmas's (making Christmas cookies) that we spent together. We

were like sisters. I have comfort in knowing that I will see her later. I love you all.

My heart broke for a moment in time and I cried. I could not believe my beloved cousin had died. But I realize that her pain & suffering had to end. So she could go home to Jesus, her new best friend. And now through the tears I can still laugh and smile. Of the memories forever in my mind that will last for a good long while. I'm comforted in knowing that she's is with our Creator. Cousin, it's not goodbye, but see you later.
