Prayers of Comfort and Condolences are with you. Shepre's smile will be missed and Ms Buchanan was blessed by her care.
My condolences to the family may God comfort you through his difficult time. Give you peace.
Life is but a stopping place a pause in what's to be A resting place along the road to sweet eternity. Our destination is a place far greater than we know For some the journey's quicker for some the journey's slow. And when the journey finally ends we'll claim a great reward And find an everlasting peace together with the Lord.
I will never forget you, Shepre, you will always be in my heart.
I love you and sending prayers to Sheldon, the peanut butter of your jelly, and the family. May God surround you all with His Angels of Strength, Love, and Healing.
God bless

Dear Mr Waters & Family: I am Doris Washington, daughter of Emma Buchanan. Just the other day I visited my mother. And I missed seeing Pre preparing my mothers lunch. I already miss Pre. She was a wonderful care giver to my mother. I pray for you and your family. My thoughts are with you. And I thought I would share this comforting message I wrote that I hope will bless and comfort you and your family." As I reflect of days passed - I think of the wonderful times we've shared. And ffg or every season - I cherish those memories of you. Each season I'll think of you." My thoughts and prayers. Doris Washington
Pre was a beloved and special person to our family. The kindness and gentleness she expressed to my mom during her time caring for her was unwavering. We will miss her dearly. Her appreciation and her love for others is what sets her high in the heights of heaven. Her insatiable spirit to express happiness and joy to those around her is something I will always remember and miss about her. Her beautiful smile and kind heart always warmed our hearts. Our deepest condolences to her family. We love and hold you in thought and prayer during this difficult time.
With much love! Gloria & Rob Green and family
