Hi Mother.
Just wanted to stop in and reminder you that today is Rashamico’s bday , I thought I wasn’t going to get a chance to wish her Happy Birthday because I lost all my contact when I got a new phone but Nikki gave me a number that she had so I was able to tell her HB and that I love her
Love you Mom I’m doing okay but life is really different without you
Tell everyone hello and that I love them Don’t forget to protect my granddaughter as she celebrate her bday
Love you
Ps I talked with Netta yesterday which was good because she never answer my calls

I love this photo of us you are simply beautiful

Oh yeah Mother 
I forgot to tell you that JaeMarie graduates Friday she is so smart and misses you so much

Hi Mom
How was your Mother’s Day
I had a good one Tori sent Flowers and Rica sent food and Nikki, Jacoby and Jae Marie got me the most beautiful Bracelet.  So it was a good day 
I’m doing ok just trying to keep your memory alive
I would give you an update but I know you already know what going on since you are our special Angel keep Cuppy in your prayers because he really need all of our prayers and also keep Jazzy Poo in your prayers because this is the day that her precious son was taken from us but I know he up there keeping you company 
I love you  Mother, tell my siblings and my nephews and Nieces that I love them also
Take care of you and I’ll take care of me

Well Mother I made it through Christmas and the New year (2025) with out you here …  please continue to watch over Nikki and Janica they’re are having a hard time without you here in the physical, I hope they can gain strength knowing  that you will always be with them and may your memory sustain them…. I love you Mother tell my siblings that I said hello and that I love them too

Well Mother, I had an emotional week because your granddaughter and I clashed and the situation got blown out of proportion…OQN your oldest daughter was sick and didn’t tell no one but she better now I talked with her today and she said she still have a couple more test to do so I pray that everything thing goes well with her, I guess you know by now that RJ was in a pretty bad car accident so he still in rehab so I’ll pray that I’ll go well with that. Love you Mother. I’ll try to keep you updated even though I know you already know everything that’s good that goes on so maybe you’ll know the best stuff. Take care and I’ll take care of me. 

I will miss my cousin. I don’t have a lot of photos on my phone but I can remember how sweet and loving she was to me and the family. Always asking me questions and helping me do things. We will miss you! 😘🕊️

Granny I'm missing you so much today. I just want to hold your hand squeeze your chin.  I just want to feel you skin rub against mines. I keep forgetting your really gone. This really hurts 😢 😞 💔  
I miss your kisses so bad. 
I Love You Momma...

To my grandmother, you were one of the most amazing grandmother in the world. You stood up. Every time you have the opportunity you took care of my sister, and I as if we were your own child. We appreciate everything you have done for us, every moment you shared and everything you taught us. Now you can rest easy and celebrate with your children in heaven, I am thank God for everything you have done for me, tell my mother and my sister I said hello hug and kiss all the family members for me. You are a true inspiration of unconditional love, hope, success and determination. I love you your granddaughter, Urica!

Mrs. Rose Marie Winder
I have always been able to count on you, you have been my stability and my rock.  When things got rough you was always in my corner and for that I will always love you.
You always had faith in me, hoped for the best in me ., covered me in prayer and love me even when I was unloveable… you gave to me and my children even if it meant you had to do without.
You was the wind beneath my wings and taught me how to be the wind beneath my own wings when you was no long here in the physical.
Rest easy my Angel, you might not have been perfect, but you was perfect for me.
May God continue to bless you.
Give all my family who are flying high with you my love
I love you my Perfect Angel
Your #5

Granny, you left me beautiful memories. Your love is still my guide, and though I cannot see you, you always by my side.
Love 💕 you forever and always

Miss Rose, one of the many Great Mother's of 1850 W Washington/Henry Horner Homes.  Thank you for watching over us while we were growing up.  
You fought the good fight, and now collect your reward.
Rest in Paradise, Dear Miss Rose
Family, you are in our prayers
Sending Condolences to your Family from mine, The Guy Terry Moore Family-1850-206

Rest in peace Ms.Rose. Sending my condolences to you and your family. 🙏🏽

I love you Ms. Rose for so many reasons the main reasons for allowing me to be part of the Winder family.  Picnics, bookbag giveaways, and looking for that WGCI bus.  From crosswords to logic puzzles if I was stuck on one I would call you.  I think that’s one of the reasons I stopped messing with that stuff because I didn’t have any one to do them with anymore.  Well tell everyone hello…Love you…

Heaven is rejoicing although we will always miss you.  We clearly have love and memories in our hearts and will love you forever…until we meet again.

To my sweet loving grandmother whom I love with all my heart. I know I’m your favorite although you can’t tell Nikki that lol. I love you so much grandma. You were the best grandma that a young lady like myself could ever ask for. I remember asking you to buy me these jeans that were name brand; you asked “well baby what’s the name”, I told you Damage, you in turn asked me “now why would I buy you a pair of Damage jeans for all that money when I could just buy you a new pair”😂😂😂. I said granny but they are new that’s just the name. I will never forget how you made me laugh so hard because you didn’t understand why, I want some Damage jeans when I could just have new ones. I will always love you. You made sure we all were well taken care of. You were a grandma to everyone who came in contact with you.  I’m forever grateful to be a part of the “Winder family”. May your legacy live on and make you proud. I love you my sweet special 🌹

I remember Ms. Rose were always so nice to me. I remember one thing she used to love was bingo. It was such a pleasure to know her. Until we see you again in paradise John5:28-29.

Dorothy jean

Not many get to experience life with they’re Great, great great grandmother in it I’m thankful I was! Love you Grandma🌹🕊️

Sorry to hear about her passing on, time is so short, I should have been able to see her again.
         My love and thoughts goes out to you all
                    Skip

Grandma always called me by my entire name “Taquella Marie” lol I can hear her saying it. Your door was always open I knew I could stop over when ever I wanted. You were so loved and I’m so glad snoh got to meet you.

To the entire Winder family, I want to extend my heartfelt condolences. I know how special Grandma was to each one of you down to the babies. Sending my love, hugs, and prayers 🙏🏽

Grandma,  I don’t have any recent pictures or videos to share but I have plenty of memories in my heart. Thank you for accepting me day 1 when I came into your life at 9yrs old. You always treated me like your own and I will forever be grateful for that. From the hugs and forehead kisses to the swats with the backscratcher, you did not discriminate! 😆😂😂 Me and Nikki kept your hand eye coordination on point! 😂 I love you Grandma and I felt the love from you too. I remember the last time we spoke when I came to visit a while back, you looked at me and said “I know I’m suppose to know who you are” smiling … and I just smiled back and told you, “it’s Ok Grandma, I know u know who I am” I know your mind wouldn’t cooperate at the time to fully embrace who I was but that love still radiated. Rest peacefully Grandma… hug Bill and Aunt Lisa for me too 🫶🏽❣️

When I think of the definition of Love, I will forever think of you, the true definition of a phenomenal woman, the void that you left will always bother me. But we know that where you are now, you have no more pain or worries or doubt or fear. Because you’re in the presence of God. Our hearts wasn’t ready but God went to his heavenly Garden & picked the most Beautiful 🌹 that he could find on this side of heaven. As Whitney Houston once said in her 🎶 “ And I, Will Always Love You.” Save me a seat @ the table. Until we meet again. 💙

To the Winder Family, may your many memories of Mrs. Winder (as she asked me to call her) provide you with comfort and celebration of the amazing woman she was.

Ms. Rose, 

I know that you are peacefully sleeping with no more worries , with no more cares but I will  always miss you.  You have been there forever holding me up showing me how to be strong.  You guys The Winders are the perfect example of family to me.  Love you.

If this video don't sum us up idk what would. Granny you mean the world to me and always will.  There was never a time where you weren't by my side and for that I'm forever grateful... 
Love your Last Last Baby
I love you, a bushel and a peck
A bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck

There’s no amount of words that can describe the impact you’ve made on our lives. You will forever be missed. But I now know, you’re an angel. Just just the ones you used to give us when we were kids. Except now, you’re our angel. I love you grandma, and I can still hear your voice telling me “and I love you extra more” 🥹 your beautiful smile will forever be in my mind. Thank you for the wonderful time we shared. I will continue to make sure I live in a way that would make you proud
