I remember in Brooklyn almost every week end I would spend some time with Leola and her mom and dad. Both Leola and Aunt Lucinda would always have some good food and didn't want me to leave unless I would eat with them.  I really missed those days spending time with my family. I always think about the time when I took my cousin Leola Fat Cat to the doctor. That was the biggest cat I had ever seen. Time went by so fast I wish I could turn the clock back just for one more day to be with them.

Aunt Lea(which I called her) was one of my First caregivers during my childhood. I remember such fond memories with her. We watched All my children together(lol). She brought me to the store quite often and would buy my favorite snacks. During the days it was myself, her, and Tabby(the cat). She treated me so well. I remember thinking she was my biological grandmother at a point. She treated me like family. She taught me some life lessons that I will keep dear to my heart. I will miss her dearly. 

When me and my husband Patrick moved to East 29th street in Brooklyn, "Aunt Lea" as we affectionately called her, Momma (Ms. Lucinda) and Poppa was so kind to assist us with child care. We had just moved in with our 3 year old little girl Lucette and Aunt Leah was so kind enough to volunteer and pick her up from pre-k until we got home from work. She was like a second mom to us. 

Our kids Lucette and Patrice bonded with her as if she was family. She was such a great soul and had a precious spirit. When she moved to NC we were happy she was moving  with family but very sad that we were not going to see her as often. Hearing of her passing brought up so much memories and we are sad that we fell short of giving her a visit in NC. 

We LOVE her dearly and have much gratitude for her being in our life. God bless her soul and our prayers are with the family! We love her dearly! May she rest in eternal peace.

 Love, the Floy Family

Beautiful photos and video for a beautiful woman.  It is an amazing gift that you were able to spend so many years with your mother/grandmother. I do remember her sense of humor. She would say things that were funny with a straight face and, as a kid, I didn't know if it was okay to laugh or not. That makes me smile now as I look at her pictures. I wish I was there to give you all a big hug this weekend.  I am sending you love and prayers for peace and strength.  Miss you all.
