    I am so sorry for your family’s loss!

    Our hearts are saddened with the loss of Mam-Maw. In 2012 our families learned so very quickly that family is so much more than blood relationships. It’s supporting one another in both the good and bad times. It’s loving one another unconditionally. It’s doing the right thing and making sure that siblings stayed connected and active in each others lives, even when not being raised in the same home. You loved our boys and this entire family in ways we can only be grateful for. We are left with so many happy memories and fun times of fighting the fight and celebrating milestones that will bring smiles for years to come. Thank you for allowing us to share these blessings and more with you all. You were amazingly strong in your faith and I’m certain we will all be protected even more now knowing you are watching from heaven. Forever missed but never forgotten. Hugs and love!
