I never thought I would wake up and hear this type of news. I always had my mind set that I would leave this world before you, but I see God had a better plan for a special angel, and though this hurts my soul I know you want nothing but the best for your children & grandbabies. I cry every time I think of you or hear your voice in my head (MOMMA NOOKIE lol). I love when you say that because nobody can fill this empty spot in my soul but God. I was just telling you that I was about to graduate from the computer class and I felt the joy in your voice & happiness that I made you proud about something and that will stay with me for the rest of my life, til I DIE!!!! I Love you mom, you're the best thing to ever happen to me and my sister & brother's so please watch over us as I know you're already doing and tell Hogg & everybody else up there to save me a spot so we can party. Ha ha ha don't trip I got us when I come home. Love always,

Your Baby Boy #7 (Hap)

Everyday I pray & thank you for letting me get the chance to have a wonderful, loving, caring, mother who was a real life "Matriar"! No matter what the odds were, she still did what was necessary for her beloved children! And she knows that there's no way we can pay her back, but to only understand! & Mama,

I also wanted to take the time to apologize for letting other things get in the way of how much I really loved & admired you & how often I should have showed it! But now you're in a better place & no longer suffering in this world. Your landmark has been made. You'll always be loved by some, hated by many, but highly respected by all! & for the most part, never forgotten!

I will remain strong, so when the day comes that I get to where you are, I just want ya to whisper in my ear...son, job well done!
