I will truly miss my mom.
One of the best memories of my mom is her beautiful smile that warmed everybody’s hearts.
One of her best characters is that she loved to help people.
If you needed clothes food a ride to the doctor grocery store church or to the bus station to get out of town “quick” , my mom was there for you.
She loved her family and never forgot to send out a birthday card and always with 5 or 10 dollars in it.
When the grandkids were little, they never ran out of white tube socks and white underwear because we knew at Christmas time grandma was buying socks and underwear for all the grandkids.
Our mom loved to cook inside and grill outside in the yard or the park and have all the family and friends come.
Because it was so many of us, she would say bring a dish and bring some meat for the grill.
Kids playing outside having fun and family and friends watching them and enjoying themselves by communicating with each other.
🙏🏽🙏. I know you’re in a better place now with no pain.
God and the angels are waiting for you.
I will miss you mommy ❤️💋
