"My heart is saddened that Mom has left us, I grieve for myself and the grandbabies that won?t get to experience the sweet and kind and giving woman that she was. Always trying to be helpful, always remembering your favorite foods and making sure to make them for you. She made the best sweet tea ever! Don?t care for tea? She?d make you fresh lemonade! She shared some of her more famous recipes with me and complimented that I made them better than she did-Not so- but it made me feel good to get her approval- she made the best brown Lima beans and potato salad ever, along with many other dishes, as I know each family member has their favorites. She was a wonderful mother-in-law... I love her dearly and will miss her very much.. I know you have found a better place so I?ll be glad for that peace for you .. watch over us Mom, watch the babies grow, we?ll share our memories of you with them and you will still be here always in our hearts and not far from our lips as you hear us tell yet another lovely story about our dear Mom, Mommy, Gram, , Great Grammy xxoo Love Barb"
