Mom,
It does not seem like I a writing in the guest book and realizing you are gone. It was such a beautiful celebration of your life yesterday and a true testimony of the woman of courage that you were. I will miss you and it will seem funny not picking up the phone to call you ahout anything. I do know you are in God's everlasting arms and we will meet again. I love you honey!
Good-bye my sweetheart for now

Mrs Harrison I never met you directly but I feel that I know you anyway. That's because you have such a lovely and thoughtful daughter (Ginger), and the way my daughter spoke of you. Thanks for loving my daughter and giving her such a lovely mother-in-law. May you rest now in the bosom of Abraham and in the Arms and presence of JESUS CHRIST who loved you here and made a mansion for you to live for ever now in His presence. You did a great job so rest now.

It is very hard to say good-bye to such a beautiful person, you was a grandmother that I never had and I appreciated that so very much, how you made space in your heart for me and treated me like one of your own. I will miss you so very much hearing you call me your "girl", you meant alot to so many people than one could imagine, you were always there especially for your great grandsons and they will miss you so it is still so very hard knowing that you are not here with us but here in spirit, I will miss you so very much-we will miss you so very much I will never forget you and how you made me feel in acceptance of your heart and life.
I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH AND WILL NEVER FORGET YOU, IT WAS A BLESSING TO HAVE YOU IN MY LIFE.
