We will miss my mother so much, but I’d rather know she is with the Lord. She was a good mother to us; she did all she could for her children and for many others. I Love you mama — Jan
My grandmother was a beautiful person inside and out. She never held her tongue even if it hurt your feelings. I admired her for her hard work and perseverance and hope I will make her proud. She’s singing with the angels now. I love you Maw Maw.Â
Hi Janice, I am sorry to hear about your mom. As a matter of fact, I just found out today. She was such a sweet, kind, and poised lady. I always admired her from a little girl. My prayers are with you and your family.

Maw Maw I can’t believe it’s already been a month since you’ve been gone. I love you so much. I will never forget your smile or your kind eyes. Thank you MawMaw for everything you did for me. I will never ever forget it. I will never forget being at your house smelling the biscuits you made in the morning. Your laughter, or even when you would fuss at me when I didn’t mind. I miss that now. I love you and I’m think of you today .
Love,
Your grandchild Hollyâ¤ï¸
I miss you mam. Always will. You were one of a kind. I love you. Janice
