Grief in any form is one of life's biggest challenges, but losing one's mom is a particularly difficult journey. Another wound that will never quite heal. My mom went to join my Daddy in Heaven. I wonder if my first breath was as soul-stirring to my mother as her last breath was to me. I think so, she told me she was glad she had me all to herself for the first three years before she had my siblings. I told her I love you mom, she said, she loves me more. My life has changed😔 Mom has touched so many people's lives and brought so many to Jesus. Bless You special lady. I will feel you in the quiet moments, in the gentle breeze, in the warmth of the sun Mommy. Love You Forever and Always Irene

Grandma, you were just the most amazing! You led your life to serve the Lord, you are compassionate and kind, always non-judgmental always there for everyone. Thank you for allowing us to pass this threshold with you, thank you for touching all of our lives, thank you for instilling faith in all of us, thank you for just being you. You thank you for your presence always. You are such a beautiful matriarch for the family and you will be so deeply missed but memories will be held close and our hearts and in our minds forever. Love you dearly. Xo Kelly

You are forever in our hearts. You are so loved and deeply missed already. With love, Kelly, Sarah and Benjamin.

There are no words that can truly capture how deeply and unconditionally you were loved by all who had the blessing of knowing you. Grandma, you will forever be my Guardian Angel, watching over me with the same grace and warmth you gave in life. Thank you for the beautiful memories, the gentle wisdom, and most of all, for guiding me closer to God through your unwavering faith. Your prayers—spoken with such quiet strength—never went unanswered, and your love for all you knew will never fade.

Sue, I was so sorry to hear about your grandma Anna. I know how much she meant to you, and even though I didn't have the chance to know her, I can only imagine how special she must have been. From our time at SBU to the many ways you've helped me through tough times, I've always appreciated your strength and compassion. Please know I'm here for you, now and always.

Some of our best memories growing up we're with you. Me and Lance always had such an awesome time coming and visiting spending the weekend. You and Grandpa were such great grandparents

Aunt Anna shared her faith and helped bring us closer to our God. Thank u Aunt Anns
