I can't believe it's been a year since you went to Heaven. I can still vividly remember your beautiful infectious laugh and smile. Your are always in our hearts and thoughts. Thank you for the great memories and kind moments and most of all Ms. Grimes. 
We Love You and Miss You Always,
Julie Monarez❤️🙏❤️🙏

Ms. Sanders,
I know you are in heaven without a care now! I know you are watching over Mary and your mom, and helping  control those “crazy neighbors” for Mary. I’m so happy that you were able to get everything situated and settled in getting your mom down here with you and Mary. You can truly rest easy. Mary’s got this! I know you can’t wait for the little one to arrive, and all of us on “Team Navarro “ know that you’ll be giving Mary that guidance every step of the way! Rest easy “Navarro’s Beyoncé “😀

Ruth was my cousin.  We were a part of a great legacy of Black Farmers in the Mississippi Delta. The roots that Ruth and I shared included being  born during the same year and we both are graduates of a  historically Black University.   Although I had not spoken to Ruth in many years, I do know that our roots kept us grounded and spiritually connected.  To know that Ruth became a teacher, means that she had opportunities to inspire not only her students; but also their families.  Most importantly, Ruth was a great mother, daughter, and friend.  

Ruth , Calvin, Orpah, Naomi and I all grew up together in the happy home of Sidney and Mary Sanders. Our home was filled with love and Ruth was a big part of that. I have wonderful memories of Ruth, her smile and our childhood years together as a family and I hope her daughter, Mary, can find comfort in the fact that I and many others share in the grief she feels for the loss of her dear mother. You are not alone.

Ruth was my cousin. My prayers go out to her daughter, Mary. To Mary, I know what it feels like to lose a love one, especially a Mother. There will be days when you will reflect on her ways and what she taught you. You may cry and you may smile, but always know that she is around in spirit. For that be grateful!

I'm so sorry to hear such a great teacher passed away. I remember during my teenage years I had a rough time in my personal life, and she'd always let me get out of class for a few seconds to collect myself. Will be missed, and may she rest in peace. My prayers and condolences to her family in these difficult times.
