Mother, I'm going to really miss you our laughters and sorrows together we made it through. We will see each other again with all my love from my heart.
I had the honor and the privilege to serve Ms. Emma during the last years of her life. At each visit, I was greeted with a smile and my new nick name "hot mess" She will be forever engraved in my heart. I'm so grateful God allowed me the opportunity to serve her.
My grandmothers favorite bible verse was " Psalms 91"which focusing on God's divine protection, security, and refuge for those who trust in Him! She was a strong believer and that verse will follow me for the rest of my life ! I love you grandmother and you will always have a special place in my heart when it comes down to you following the path of god. God has his protection over you now ! RIP gran-gran!
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
