A mother is a protector, disciplinarian and friend. A mother is a selfless, loving human who must sacrifice many of their wants and needs for the wants and needs of their children. A mother works hard to make sure their child is equipped with the knowledge, skills and abilities to make it as a competent human being.

I am truly sorry for the loss of your mother. She was truly a remarkable  woman.  She always had something  wise to  say  and would  encourage everyone  with her words. I loved that no matter when I saw her she always would  ask how I was doing  and never  forgot  not one single  detail.

Please accept my condolences and may my  prayers help comfort you and your family. May God give her eternal rest and the family the strength to bear the great pain.

My thoughts and  prayers are with you  always  and I am here  if  you need me.  

Memories of making sure I made it home from the far back end of the neighborhood to my home safely as a young elementary girl will never be forgotten. Who knows if it wasn’t for this lady if I would’ve made it there safely some evenings. Small bits and pieces of life memories like those help mold me to be the mom I am today. It’s no wonder I wait to make sure people get all the way home safe today. Thank you for your kind words and acts! It’s women like you who help build strong women today. May your souls rest in peace. Thanks Kay and Kesh for allowing me to build memories with your mom.

I've known mama Merlene since i was in elementary school. I remember when Keisha came to Riviera Beach Elementary. I made a new friend and inherited a new Mom. She stayed in contact even after we became adults and had children. She passed down her love and showed me what taking care of a family looked like. She stayed classy. I love her and she will ALWAYS BE IN MY HEART. I Love YOU Merlene.

I've known Merlene Bourne since I was a young child. She was a devoted women of God, always willing to do the work of the Lord. She was such a kind, compassionate person always helping and giving to others. I lost a bestfriend on August 17th, but she will always have a very special place in my heart. 

Hi Nola
My condolences for your loss of Merlene. It has been a very long time since I've seen her. Looking at these pics online, I see she still looks the same with her peaceful smile as when we were kids living in the Shorey Village Barbados.
May God continue to bless you, her daughters and your entire family in times like these.
Rest in Peace my Cuz......(Merlene).
