With tears in my eyes I wanna say Happy Birthday. I often think of all the times we could have spent together and what it would have been like. But I also think of all the times I would see you when I got off the bus and how you had the biggest smile on your face it was priceless and there's nothing I wouldn't do to get that again. Over the years I prayed to find out if I was truly your granddaughter and I accomplished that and for that I'm grateful to know that I will always be apart of you. I will always keep you close to my heart. Love you always and forever my angel

To my beautiful mother I miss you so much on this day you would have been 83 today you taught me so much how to be strong I pray everyday that I can be a wonderful mother like you I miss you so much

RIP I love you!!!

My beloved Grandmother the oldest relative in our family. You are now in a better peaceful place and the entire family is so blessed to have had you in our lives for 81 years. Not many people can say that there parents or grandparents lived that long. You fought long and strong until you took your last breath. You had so much love surrounding you on your last day on earth with us. You are now a beautiful Angel watching over us and seeing how blessed we all are to have had you with us for so many years. Your presence and spirit is still here with us. I will never forget all that you have taught me; taught us. I wish you could still be here with us but god and tour mother has been waiting for you. You are now at peace with your mother Madea by your side. Mother and daughter finally reunited. I love you always my beautiful Glamma Angel

Granny you installed so much into all of us you and mom always said never say goodbye so I won't I will say see you later. We all need you but God needed you more. Your work here was done from taking part in helping raise us all which we all appreciate greatly. Now its time for you to rest. I am thankful that God felt us worthy of giving you to all of us for that time. Love you Granny.

I don't think there will ever be a enough ways to say I love you. I remember being a little girl and you would come to Flora and you would always make sure you came to see me and you would tell me how much you loved me. That stuck with me my whole life and will continue to. A grandma's love Is like no other love I'm thankful to have had you in my life. This is hard for me really really hard for me now I know where I get the strength and courage that I do its from you. I know where I get the drive to go on. I know not to question God as to why and I want but this is hard you are the foundation of the family where it all started I wanna thank you for giving my daddy life because without him I wouldn't be here. I remember you always telling me your beautiful it always made me smile. Now you've gained your wings and I have two guardian angels shinning over me. When we was at the hospital I remember asking everyone why is the sun shinning so bright in here it was blinding me and I knew it was you cause I've had that feeling before my mama shined her light on me to. Say hello to Manda for me I know she's glad to see you grandma she use to talk about you all the time and how I acted so much like you. This has truly changed me forever. I'm just glad to know that I'm finally your granddaughter. I'm at peace knowing you loved me no matter what. Rest on my sweet love I will never forget you love you today,tommorow,and always.

luv you dorothy u will be truley missed
