Remembering You I knew that eventually, this day would

come. The day you would be reunited

with all of our loved ones who had gone

before you, tell everyone Hi for us, and

let them know we miss them. I miss your

hugs, kisses, our talks, laughs, the advice

you gave me, the lessons you have

taught me as well as mama, Auntie

Veronica, and Auntie Jean, and yall’s

unconditional love. I pray to God that I

can be at least half of the woman that

you, mom, Auntie Veronica, and Auntie

Jean ARE. I can proudly say that I had

four strong, intelligent, hardworking,

loving, and caring women to build the

foundation of my evolving character. I

hope you know how thankful and

blessed I am because I had each and

every one of you to guide me through

life. I will always remember your

favorite scripture, “I can do all things

through Christ, which strengtheneth

me.” Philippians 4:13 KJV. Sleep in

Peace, Mama. We will always carry you

in our hearts.

Love,

Your Grandchildren
