You were an amazing granny, there was never anyone as special as you nor will there ever be. You taught me so much in the years we had together. Cooking, sewing, giving a helping hand and being able to keep an open heart and love everyone you ever knew. I will always remember our moments together, especially when you got mad and chased me with the newspaper and we ran around for several minutes and we gave up laughing and one of us had an accident in our pants... and laying in bed sharing secrets and telling jokes or just you reflecting on the past and giving me insight on our family. I remember long days baking cookies and fudge to send to Brian and his friends when he was overseas, and how I broke the bowl that grandpa had given you, man you were so upset, we both cried, right after you chewed my booty out for letting it slip off the edge of the table. I remember how short the summers seemed till you put me in the garden to pick up rocks, then it seemed like it drug on, and canning food, snapping green beans while sitting on the porch in the shade.... so many things that I will miss doing with you granny, you were a very special lady to me, and I will always love you. Are you able to walk on the beach in heaven? I remember taking you to the beach and the two of us crying cause you couldn't walk and i couldn't push you in the sand. So the kids went looking for seashells for you and every time they would bring one back to you you would tell them every thing about that particular one... you were a smart, beautiful, caring, loving, and funny granny and I wish every kid had the opportunity to have a granny like you...you will be missed dearly, I love you.

What a wonderful mom, I was a daughter-in-law but there were lots of times that you would take care of me just like your own, thank you for that. I love you, I miss you. I thank you for all of the things you taught me, thank you for calling me your daughter. I know you are happy in the loving arms of Jesus with all your loved ones around you. I will always miss you. Janie.

What a sweet lady. We were privleged to get to know her over the last 18 years since we have lived next door to her. She was always there for us when we needed an extra egg or some sugar when I was trying to bake something and didn't have enough ingrediants. Sometimes to just sit and talk. During her last few years after George passed, she would join us on sunday to go to a church service at Sunset Baptist. We talked about our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and she just knew that someday soon, she would be able to meet Him personally as she knew Him as her Savior. My husband always liked the way she would tell him what to do, he always said she reminded him of his own mother, who passed away several years ago. We will remember her for the rest of our lives. Our prayers go out to her family, for comfort in their time of sorrow. She will be missed by us as well, but I am convinced she is happy and secure in the arms of her Savior.
