I love you Granny!!
I pray God gives you peace and strength in this time of sorrow...Amen
I did not get to see you as often as I would have liked but Granny, the times that I did, I will remember always. I could sit and listen to all your stories for hours and never get bored. I will think about you everytime I wash my face with Ivory soap, rinse with cold water and use my Rose Petroleum Jelly...I hope my skin is as beautiful as yours when I'm 96 years old-Melanie, Tommy, Madelin, Jackson and Kanton
I will Miss you always even though I never got to see you as much as I would have liked to, over the 45 years I've been on this earth. As a child I have so many loving thoughts of you and the times I/We got to spend at your house or Aunt Eileen's house. I am so glad we got to see you before the very end and that you knew we were there by your side. I'm so Sorry I wasn't able to be there for the very end... Love always Lucy Lee Taylor
I will alway hold dear all the special memories of you. I am honored to be your great granddaughter and that you where able to meet and get to know your great great granddaughter Piper. I will make sure that she knows how special you are to me and teach her all the things you taught me. I love you and miss you more than you will ever know. Amanda, Curtis, and Piper
It has been a joy and pleasure to meet her as she was preparing to be with our LORD. On her last day, I could sense the depth and breadth of her love for others as we walked into a house that was jam packed with family to be with her in their darkest hour, but her hour of triumphant home-going. Our prayers are with all of you. Rev. Lee Balinas, Chaplain, Haven
To my loving grandmother i will miss you dearly. Shana,kim & Tristan
My favorite Aunt whom I loved and adored. I cherished the time I spent with her growing up and whenever I could visit.She taught me alot and I shared and used her values as I grew up. My favorite memories are sitting on the front porch listening to the cows as she told stories to us. She will be sorely missed but I am sure that she is having a great reunion in heaven with all her sisters and family.
