Grandma:  I can't believe it has been over a year since you left us.  Some days the pain is like I just found out, but some days it seems like a lifetime ago.  I often feel like we lost you three times, 1.  When stupid Alzheimer's took your mind from us, 2.  When you went to Tennessee to live with Uncle Butch, and 3.  The day the Lord called you home.  When Alzheimer's took over, at least I could come see you everyday even though you didn't know who I was most of the time, I still knew who you were.  When you went to Tennessee I could call you and talk to you, when you left this earth all I have is my memories!  I am so thankful that we have so many wonderful memories to get me through until the Lord calls me home and we can be together again!  I love you so much and miss you terribly everyday!  Kiss Grandpa and the rest of the family and tell them I love and miss them too!  Until we are together again in Heaven, Love Tina

I didn't know you that well.but I know you had to be a wonderful person to have raised my Aunt Shirley and help make her one of the most wonderful people I know.I'm thinking and praying for your family you left behind here in the temporary world here with us to the forever world with Jesus

Tina, I know the empty feeling that is going to be there for a long time, just hang on to the memories that you have.... Love ya....

Being an aunt, and having nieces and nephews to love is wonderful.
Having an aunt, to love you, is even
greater.
Thank you , Aunt Tine 
I love you and will miss you!

I can  still hear her voice. We used to talk on the phone. I know you always loved family reunions. I know in heaven you must be having an awesome time. Shirley and Arthur Lee you had a great Mom. From Cousin Kay Buckman Lipsey

You will be dearly missed. It was an honor to know you, you blessed many lives and will be remembered. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Watch over them in their time of sorrow and help them to know you will always be in their hearts. All they have to do is look up to the heavens and know you are smiling down on them.  Gloria Cormney

You are such a special lady. Our loss is the Lords gain. We are all so blessed to have known you. Our thoughts and prays are with you and your family.

You and your family are in our thought's. Aunt Chris,I remember stopping at her house sometime on my way home from school,to set and talk. We love and will miss you.

God has taken another angel to be with him and all you family in heaven. We will miss you and hope to be with you again some day.Love Always Roy & Judy

You, my dear friend and long time neighbor, will be forever remember and missed.  You and Mr. Porter were so much a part of the fabric of our childhood.  I will always remember our talks in the yard when I visited Mom and Dad, and our phone conversations.  You will always be a part of those of us you leave behind.  I love you, Chris.

Even though I haven't seen Mom for very long time I kept up with her through her grandchildren. . She had such a positive impact on my life. She was so even tempered, caring, and loving. I can't recall seeing her ever lose her temper in all those years. I learned so much from her and I will love and miss her forever.

Let the celebration begin for your eternal, beautiful life in Heaven! Although we will miss you here on earth, we can only imagine what joy you have!

Heaven has gained an angel and we on earth have lost a dear friend.

All our love, Florence, David and Donna Lay
