  3. I’m so sorry. My very deepest condolences to your family. Rest in Eternal Peace, beautiful angel.

  4. I will miss this lady so, so much. She was an inspiration to us all and had personality plus. My husband even had a slight crush on her, and you know what, she’s such a cool lady I didn’t even mind lol. She had the best laugh and the bluest eyes. She fought against evil and as far as we are concerned, she won. She really did love her makeup palettes, and wasn’t extraordinary makeup artist. Most of all, she loved her family so much, and it showed. I will miss her so so so much.

  7. What a legacy you left behind my dearest and sweetest friend. You had so much love to give that you not only showered your beautiful family husband, children and grandchildren with love you also included your wig family making each and everyone of us feel to be a important part of your extended family which you shared selflessly. Laughter was a huge part of Friday night lives where we all had a giggle or two. You were an amazing person who just wanted to help other women in their hair loss journey to embrace wearing alternative hair confidently and will be missed by so many.
    I pray that your beautiful family takes comfort in knowing that you were loved by so many and made a huge difference to everyone in her life here on earth and that we will all be reunited when it is time for us to join you in the heavenly realm.

Loved ones we lost and those here on earth. You made such an impact in so many lives. You truly had a servants heart. You worried about others over your own needs. We had so many moments that I’ll cherish. I got your back girl and I know when I see you again, we will laugh and hug. Your laugh is infectious and I will always hear it in my head.
