My Mama is seeing her Savior face to face. She is experiencing the awesome things the Lord has prepared for her. Wonder beyond our imaginations. I believe she is now young and vibrant - perhaps running through fields of flowers with those who’ve gone on before. I can see the smiling faces of those flowers as they encourage my Mama to join them in song. I know I will see her again. I’m her Alpha girl - first born.

She Was a special Lady, She Not only was Loved by her Children, but She loved her Son In laws. I Asked First, if I could call her mom After Mine passed Away, her Answer Was yes. She took a plane to Elizabeth city When We got Married, She was a Thought full lady. Who Loved the Lord, She will have more pain or Suffering, as She is now in the Arms of the Savior

My mom, she was a courageous woman who dealt with many challenges in her life but her faith never wavered. She loved God with everything in her and always had a kind word for everyone. We have all benefited from her example as a Godly woman! I love you so much mom and will miss you so much! I’ll see you someday in your mansion in the sky! Love your daughter Linda Lee!

See you when we all get to heaven, as the son says. It is not goodbye, it is just for now. I have many loved ones up there with you. I am looking forward to my time to see the wondrous glory of Heaven and my Lord Jesus Christ. I would that all would come to Jesus so that we all would forever more be together.
