I can't even begin to imagine my life without my Mom. She was the best friend any daughter could ever hope for. She was always there to listen and she would tell you like it was even if that was not what you wanted to hear. So thankful that I was able to spend time with her everyday for the last few weeks of her life. I loved her so much and I knew she loved me more than life itself. As I struggle to cope,I know that very soon, Jehovah will give Jesus the command to awaken her from death. Until that time Sleep on in peace until we meet in the Resurrection. Your daughter and best friend Annie Marie Crawford
