I’m writing this the second time I don’t think the other posted because I wasn’t signed in. But I am so sorry for you my dear friend Michelle and of course your family. I know how much you loved her. She reminded me of my little mamma so Tiny yet powerful. My mamma passed2 yrs ago in Jan. They were almost the same age. 10-24-26. To 01-14-2017. They were from the good ole days.!!! My heart breaks for you. But not for her. She is living again for an eternity. We we see them again, they will be waiting on us. Don’t forget that she’s never gone. She is in the presence of the Lord. Waiting on us. To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. I love you Michelle. Patricia Sartin.
