Lamentations 3:21-23 ESV
I remember the good ole days running around the house eating all the snacks in Mrs. Thompson’s kitchen.. I don’t have the words to make any of this better but Tina know that I care.
Grandma,
I’ve always thought about this time and I never saw myself surviving past a day without you. It is only by the grace of God and all that you have instilled in me, that I am able to continue on without you here. I’m going to miss coming home from school and seeing you light up as I open the door. I’m going to miss being able to call you and hear you say, “Hey girl!” Grandma, I’m going to miss you until we meet again. There’s sooo much I’m going to miss but my heart is at peace, knowing that you are not in pain, and with the Lord. I KNOW you are. You have given me the best 25 years of my life and I want you to know that your work was not in vain. I just knew you would make it to see me graduate, and now my girl, you will have the best seat in the house!
Mommy, Jay, and I will be fine. Take your well deserved rest.
I love you grandma.
-Your girl forever. ❤️
Dear family, I extend to you my sincere condolences. Maude was my co-worker at MMC and also a true friend. I loved her smile and laugh and always offered help in any way she could. Her cooking was superb and in abundance. Maude loved the Lord, her now deceased husband, daughter Tina and her grands. She was not a pretentious person but down to earth. Rest in peace my friend, until we meet again for sure.
Dearest Tina, my family and I send you a great big hug and our deepest condolences on the passing of your sweet mother. We will forever remember Aunt Maude for her radiance and for the way she ALWAYS made us feel welcomed and loved. May you cherish the memories, and may Aunt Maude rest in peace.
My dear Aunt Maude….never will I forget your sweet spirit; never will I forget that beautiful smile; never will I forget how loving and supportive you’ve ALWAYS been towards me and my family! You are and will always be forever missed on this side of earth but I Thank God you are resting and at peace!!!! I LOVE YOU, Auntie! 😘
Dear family, my deepest condolences to you from your distant family member in Massachusetts. I wish I could have spent more time with my Aunt Maude and Uncle Sam. But I’m glad that I had the chance to spend some time with them in this side. So Tina you and your girls be strong for your mom and we love you. Sam and Sherrie
Dear Tina:
Norma and I are so sorry for your loss. I worked with your Mother for many years. She was a coworker but better than that she was a dear friend. I have many great memories of our years together at work, among those memories was the happiness your arrival added to your Mom and Dad’s life. We at work enjoyed and appreciated being a part of your family and watching you grow up.
I will always count your Mom and Dad among my dear friends. God bless and comfort you and your family . In Christian Love, Bruce and Norma DeBord.
Tina,
Thank you for sharing your mom with me while I lived in Orlando. Maude was an amazing woman. I thank God He for placing her in my life. You and your family are in my prayers.
A BEAUTIFUL, WONDERFUL human being!
I had hoped to see you again, but all is not lost, I can see you in Heaven instead because I know you made it in.
My condolences to the family of this BEAUTIFUL human being.
At this time I would like to offer my condolences to the Beachum and Thompkins families. Maude was a true friend and a caring person. The life that she lived will always be remembered. The ways she touched hearts cannot be erased. Her infectious smiles and the laughter she created will live forever. I will miss her saying, “Hey girl” how are you? followed by her sweet laughter. Maude loved her family and would be sorely missed. May you rest in peace with your husband.
Thinking of my family during this time. Aunt Maude I will never forget the unconditional love you showed to me every time I saw you no matter how long it had been. I can only imagine the reunion you and my grandad are about to have.

she will be missed. Love you Maude.
Rest Maude, I can imagine the smile on your face when you entered the gates of Heaven and touched the face of Jesus and He replied “job well done “. Sending prayers to Tina and family.
Tina. I am so sadden to hear of your moms passing. I never got the opportunity to meet her but there were many similarities to our Mothers and how we were raised. As I am reading the comments I can feel the love for you Mom coming from her family and friends. I love you girl. Oh. I also remember how you used to call her “Mommy”. I always loved that. You and the kids stay strong.
