Mothers Remarks:
At 12:41 a.m. October 8th, we released my baby’s heart so that she could gain her wings, and join her maternal Grandmother, Elsie Scott, who also passed on this date.
She was my firstborn, my first love, my first heart ,my first everything... She has left this earth but she will never leave our hearts.
Our heart is broken, never to be put together the same again.
Love you, always and forever - Mom
