To us, she was simply Mamaw.
She was the heart of our family and one of the most loving, giving, and genuinely kind people you could ever know. She loved her family deeply, always had a smile to share, and had a way of making the people around her feel loved.
Most importantly, Mamaw was a Godly woman who loved Jesus with her whole heart. Her faith wasn’t just something she talked about, it was how she lived. You could see the Lord in the way she loved her family, cared for others, and carried herself through life.
Today, our hearts are broken because we will miss her more than words can say. But even through the tears, we have peace knowing exactly where she is. She is whole, she is healed, and she is Home with the Lord she loved so much.
We will miss her smile, her laughter, her love, and simply having our Mamaw here with us. But we know this isn’t goodbye. One day, we will see her again.
We love you beyond words, Mamaw. Until we meet again.
