She was a very beautiful and loving woman, with so much love for her daughters, son, and most of all, her grandchildren, great-grandkids, and great- great-grandbabies.
In this lifetime, there will never be another Mother, or grandmother who will ever take her place. She also loved Music, Singing, Dancing, Cooking, Gardening, and most of all, being the center of all our attention.
Mame, you have left us here on earth with tears and sadness....To be with God and all His beautiful Angels. But yet, you have left us with such beautiful memories for all of us to enjoy, until we meet again in Heaven. We all love you so much and will be missed forever more.
