Our "MOTHER" was a daughter, a wife, a mom, a grandmother, a sister not only in blood but also in spirituality, but most of all she was a "CHILD OF GOD"! I've always known even as a small child that my mother was the best that there ever could be. She never slipped, failed, or faltered no matter what what came her way. She always stayed strong. My mother always kept us all safe. We may not have had much material things as we grew up, but what else did we need we had our "MOTHER"!

The Magic of our Mamaw's Touch / Gina Palermo (Granddaughter)
There was a magic in our Mamaw's touch, and sunshine in her smile. There was love in everything she done to make our lives worthwhile. We could find both hope and courage Just by looking in her eyes. Her laughter was a source of joy, her works were warm and wise. There was a kindness and compassion to be found in her embrace, and we saw the light of Heaven shining from our Mamaw's face.
To My Dearest Family: Some things I'd like to say but first of all to let you know, that I arrived okay I'm writing this from Heaven where I dwell with God above, where there's no more tears or sadness,
there is just eternal love Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night That day I had to leave you when my life on Earth was through God picked me up and hugged me and He said I welcome you It's good to have you back again you were missed while you were gone as for your dearest family they'll be here later on I need you here so badly as part of My big plan there's so much that we have to do to help our mortal man Then God gave me a list of things He wished for me to do and foremost on that list of mine is to watch and care for you And I will be beside you every day and week and year and when you're sad I'm standing there to wipe away the tear And when you lie in bed at night the days chores put to flight God and I are closest to you in the middle of the night When you think of my life on Earth and all those loving years because you're only human they are bound to bring you tears But do not be afraid to cry it does relieve the pain remember there would be no flowers unless there was some rain I wish that I could tell you of all that God has planned but if I were to tell you you wouldn't understand But one thing is for certain though my life on Earth is o're I am closer to you now than I ever was before And to my very many friends trust God knows what is best I'm still not far away from you I'm just beyond the crest There are rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb but together we can do it taking one day at a time It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too that as you give unto the World so the World will give to you If you can help somebody who is in sorrow or in pain then you can say to God at night my day was not in vain And now I am contented that my life it was worthwhile knowing as I passed along the way I made somebody smile So if you meet somebody who is down and feeling low just lend a hand to pick him up as on your way you go When you are walking down the street and you've got me on your mind I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind And when you feel the gentle breeze or the wind upon your face that's me giving you a great big hug or just a soft embrace And when it's time for you to go from that body to be free remember you're not going you are coming here to me And I will always love you from that land way up above Will be in touch again soon P.S. God sends His Love --Author Unknown

……….Who She Was / Joan Hall Justice (Daughter)
The memories of the past are vague The hurts are forever and forgiven What I have today is what there is forever And those are the memories of all I have to hold on to.
In my mind I remember a face-one of beauty One with rarely a frown And almost always a smile
Never a harsh word-just a kind gentle smile I hear her voice as she says kind words to all who she knew The words were always soft And they were who she was I will forever hear her say “Hi Honey” soft and gentle was her voice
In the air I breathe I know she is there To guide and protect all who she loved I will forever be grateful I was born through her to love I am now who she was
