💕I love you auntie. Your grace, beauty and love will be missed.
It’s hard saying goodbye to my mom’s last sibling so I’m I’m saying, “see you later”. God now care you in his arms as I care you in my heart❤️
She had such a beautiful spirit. I called her mom because she was my neighbor going up and took me in as a daughter. On my graduation day from high school she baked me a beautiful four layered coconut cake and it was made with love. It was garnished so beautifully. I’ve always compared the cake to her, everything that was beautiful on out side was even more loveable in the inside. She was sweet, kind and strong.. i’m going to miss you. Thanks for being a part of my village .💔💐🙏🏾
You were an inspiration in the lives of so many. I’m glad I had the opportunity to meet you in 1972 when I was in 5th grade at Grand Avenue Elementary ; you were a great teacher who had a classroom full of love, structure and discipline. I will always hold your memories in my heart.
