May 30, 1951 – September 23, 2017
“Choose to be happy!”
The light of my life for the last nearly 51 years was extinguished from this world last Saturday morning at 1:00am.
She is now shining brightly in the next existence, however you wish to define it. For us, it’s God’s home, Heaven. She is chatting lovingly with our daughter, Briana who died in May, her Mom, Lee, and her sister, Lori, among many others.
What a wonderful experience for her! We are so happy she is free of these worldly chains, her tremors, her blindness, her inability to speak anymore, ambulatory deficits, and her mental torment of being a complete human being but trapped in a dysfunctional body. She was beautiful to the end and looked peaceful and serene after she took her last breath.
Her kindness, patience, and love is now being shown to a whole new set of beings. We have no doubt that they are instantly loving her in Heaven as did everyone in this world when they met her. She was truly a special woman. A Mom, a Wife, and a Faithful Friend. Her wisdom was beyond compare.
We love her, and always will.
She was the best thing that has ever happened to me.
