Darrell, Brenda, & Tiffany: We were very sorry to hear about your mother; and on the same day you had Mr. Wilson's funeral. A terrible day. But we know that for them it was a joyous day! Your mom always seemed like such a sweet lady; always smiling. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Love you all! p.s. That picture of her is beautiful!

The list of things I need to thank you for is too great to list here so I'll just say thank you for being my Mom . You did an awesome job. I was not much on hugs but I sure would like to have one more. I need to stay here for a while longer to try to lead others to Jesus Christ but I will see you soon. I imagine you have already toured heaven by now. It makes my heart leap for joy knowning what you have already seen. I'm sure you have already seen Daddy and I know he is well. Tell him I said hi and I'll be there when God is done with me here and I hope to bring a crowd !

Our family's loss is heaven's gain. Her gentle smile and kind nature is what I will always remember and that infectious laugh. She can smile without pain or sadness now, the promise has been fulfilled. I will miss you Aunt Betty. A little piece of my heart went to heaven with you. Please share it with my dad.
