My dear Precious Momma is now in Jesus Arms. She was one of a kind, loving, caring and always had a smile for everyone she met. She loved everyone she met and so many people loved her. I have always said she was and still is "My Hero". She worked so hard to take care of us 10 children, never complaining. I have always been so very Proud to call her my Mother. I missed her the minute she left this earth and will always miss her. If everybody could have a Mother like this the world would be a much better place. Until we meet again my Momma RIP in Jesus Arms and know that I will see you again someday.

My sincerest love and comfort is extended to Jeanne and her family. It is so hard to be left behind. I just lost my mom in 2012 and now I can remember her with smiles and laughter. All the things she said and did to try and make us responsible adults. I'm sure Mom is waiting to welcome your mom to Heaven. May God hold all of you in His grace and love.
