Memories:
She was a loving, beautiful, strong mother, daughter, best friend, grandma and a sister who will always be missed. She was a hard working woman. She loved it when her daughter took her riding in the car going places to shop for shoes and clothes. She loved to listen to music and her drinks. She was the best mother in the world of my life. I will miss her forever. I love you always.

Dedicated Poem:
I can't imagine how I will cope with your departure. I was used to seeing your loving demeanor shine through soft. Your gentle smile as we spent remembering the moments of happiness and sorrows of this life. You always knew when something was wrong with my being. You allowed me into your journey and I was able to experience some of most precious memories I will hold near and dear to my heart. You finished your mission and God called you home. Always remember that a part of my heart as withered. As the rose that you represented abruptly came close. My heart hurts to know that God took you home. You allowed me to express my inner most feelings. You filled our lives with love, laughter and memories that we will always cherish. God bless you mama until we meet again.
