My mother lived to laugh and love, she had a way of making you laugh. A very loving mom and always had a shoulder to lean on and always knew the right words to say to comfort me or anyone who was feeling down. She was a special person that went above and beyond the call of duty. Always rushing to the bedside of her sisters and friends. She was always there to lend a helping hand. She was right beside me when I had my babies, she was there to watch them grow and smothered them with love. She enjoyed having fun with a long list of friends and family and never tired of going out with us for a fun day. She was in a club called the Silver Foxes that gave her alot of joy, I still have the very first e-mail card she made after learning how to create a card on line, she was so proud, and I was proud of her. In remembering her, I truly admire her strength, she never complained about being ill. She wss a survivor and as a mom still tried to protect my sisters and me from her pain. What a woman. We miss her everyday. Everyday we thank God she is at peace. We thank God for making her my MOM.

Mom,
I think of you every day, I miss our phone calls and laughter, I have no one to share my stories with, you always had time to listen to me, and make my day better. We never ran out of things to talk about. I miss you so much and love you dearly.

Your baby girl, Laverne, 20 January 2007
