Mom it still doesn’t seem real! I am sorry it has taken so long to write this, But I know as we had talked, laughed, cried, worried and just plain got thru it all you are in such better place. Thank you for coming to me in my dreams a few days ago. It was just like you were standing in my door, you were so happy as I said what are you doing up out of bed, to which you replied I have my legs back and I am going to run and run all the days. Oh at the happy tears that brings me knowing that God has restored the legs and life back in your spirit. I miss you but I am glad you are happy. Watch over us all and I can’t wait to see you and dad and all the family up there one day till then I LOVE YOU

Mary you were one of the greatest aunt's anyone could ask for and the light of the family. Always happy ,fun, and loved playing with the kids all the time. You made sure there was always grapes for April and ice cream for Anthony when we'd go to visit, even if she had to send Curtis out to the store to get it. You will be missed dearly.
We love you ❤

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

26 years we spent together and we almost never had a fight or bad moment. I learned so much wisdom and cleaning tricks from you, also I learned what it means to fight. You kept your faith first and made sure to tell us grandkids how important that was. I will carry so many amazing memories full of love and fun. I will remember in all the times of struggle to look to god and know I am taken care of. You are free to walk with those beautiful new knees with all of our loved ones up in paradise. Thank you for being everything that represents strength and love for me. I can't hear you or see you but you will always be here. Rest and play now. ❤

To one of the best mother's that a boy could ever have, I say to you, rest in peace and no more pain. I am heartbroken , but know that you are now in a better place. I will always cherish our talks, laughs, and just plain ol' good times. The garage sales, newspapers in the garage in the middle of the night, and last fried chicken. I am so happy to have had all the years we got to spend together, I wouldn't trade it for the world. You were always supportive of me, when other just couldn't see the difference. True friendship it was, to the end. I love you ❤️, and will miss you so. Enjoy your time with Pop, and your wings of love!
