To Leslie and Family: Rarely have I seen an entire family of children so devoted to their mother. You've all been so generous with your time, despite having your own lives. This is no doubt a testament to the love and devotion shown by your mother to you. I never met her, but from the stories I've heard, I know she's special. May God continue to grant all of you the strength and peace needed to get through today and the days ahead. And Leslie, keep looking for those signs that your Mom is right there with you! It will bring you comfort. With love... Pam Holt

To the sweetest woman I've ever known. There are no words to express how blessed I am to have had such a wonderful and loving mother. I pray that God welcomes you with opened arms and keep you in his loving embrace until we meet again. Your loving son, Jelani.

Wow, where do I start; I never knew this type of pain existed. I've heard of it and I've even witnessed it while supporting others at funerals, but when you go through it for yourself...there are no words to express it fully. Losing someone as spectacular as my mother makes it even more detrimental for me. I was my mom's "baby girl" the youngest of 6; and I must say she spoiled me, both as a little girl and I feel even in my adulthood. There were certain little things we shared/conversations and trinkets she bestowed upon me that were priceless; I felt special being the recipient of those "goodies" (smile). Not many people can say that their mother never judge them, or belittled them, or caused any discord with them; but I am grateful/proud to say that I "NEVER" had any strife with my mom; our relationship was respectful, fun, and absolutely "SOLID". I thank God that He thought enough of me to send an angel to be my mom; beautiful, resilient, and God fearing. Who could ask for anything more? I'm gonna miss all of our talks mom, your warnings and advising, your encouragement and even your disapprovals; all the things that have shaped and molded me to become the woman I am today. Thank you for your constant prayers that has kept me alive and away from danger. I can never repay you for all that you've done for me, but I will keep striving to at least be half the woman that you are; because in all honesty, I will never measure up to your greatness. I love you SO MUCH mom. I still feel your spirit and will keep "our' memories close to my heart. Rest in Peace and Power "Lil Girl" (as I'd often called you lol) until we meet again. With my unconditional love and gratitude; Your "FOREVER" Baby Girl-Leslie Brendell Cromwell

My heart is heavy, but my soul is full, because I know my mother is at peace, no more sadness, no more grief, nor pain. My comfort lies in knowing that I did absolutely everything that I could. I walked this terrible journey with my mom, every step of the way,down to the last mile, as she slowly slipped away, while I held her hand. She left this harsh world and entered into heaven with warm kisses upon her face and soft whispers of "I Love You" in her ear, and thus, my soul is satisfied. Written by an eternally grateful daughter/Anna Pearl Cromwell-Anthony

I'm grateful to have a catalogue full of mental memories that make my heart smile each time I recall each memory. I miss the days of me and my younger sister going to grandmas's house every other weekend. Weather we were watching grandma's favorite shows on tv, coloring and making her pictures to go on her refrigerator, vigorously pedaling on her indoor exercise bike, or waiting for her to make us one of her delicious home cooked meals, there was always a sense of peace and comfort in being at my grandma's house. My grandmother had a radiant and kind hearted spirit that will forever be remembered and used as a model for me as I navigate my way through life. Grandma, I love you so very much and appreciate you for instilling the things you did in my mother, aunts and uncles, that have forever been instilled in me. Rest assured; the vision that you had of me and my younger sister's success has stuck with me, and I won't rest until it's brought to fruition. I wish I could've said goodbye, but I will do all I can to make you proud. Thank you grandma, rest in peace. With love, your granddaughter Alexis (Or as you would call me: Juice)
