My sweet grandma, I’m going to miss you so much and I’m going to miss seeing your beautiful smile. I loved coming over to your house all the time in the summer and going thrift shopping with you, our trips to Roanoke together, our beach trips, I love you so much and words can’t explain how heart broken I am...fly high grandma, the sweetest most beautiful women I know. 

My sweet grandma, I am going to miss you dearly and I am glad I spent my 16 years of life knowing you and loving you. I will cherish the many memories I made with you.  Like the time you were bringing me from Roanoke to Richmond and I was going to get to spend the week with you and it was the best road trip ever. We made so many stops to get produce and plants for your garden. You let me pick out the flowers for your garden and I remember picking out these bright yellow flowers and you loved them. I remember you rolling the windows down on interstate and blasting your classic country and singing at the top of your lungs and seeing the smile on your face because you were just so happy. I remember you coming to my softball games and seeing you so happy watching me. There’s so many more memories but I can’t name them all. I love you grandma. Thank you for being amazing and so sweet. I know you’re in a better place and spending your time with God. I’ll see you again one day love.

Carol Jean,
Words cannot express how much you mean to me.  God gave me the best mother-in-law ever!
I am going to miss calling you and just talking to you and coming to see you.  I’m also going to miss our beach trips, holidays, birthdays, and all the days going forward.  I love you so much and I’m thankful for the love we shared.  Thank you for sharing your wonderful son Ronald/Ronnie/Ron with me and raising him to be a loving husband and father.
Loving you always and forever,
Sylvia

Hi boys,

So very sorry to hear about your mom! She was a dear lady and special friend to my mom. I know she will be missed greatly! I learned how to make the best squash from her secret ingredients! My heart is heavy for you at this time, but just know she is in a better place! Praying for you! Hold dear to the memories!

Hugs,
Cindy Jessee (Dunkum)

Our hearts are heavy and not seeing you on this earth will be hard. We can rejoice in knowing where you are and that we will meet again.  I will remember all the laughs and fun we had over the years. I learned many things from you, and always loved having you as my big sister. The month mom and I spent with you in CA, and all the boys, and Butch was my favorite vacation ever. When we meet again will be the very best ever. Knowing you are with loved ones who have gone on first is a comfort. Bathed in the light of eternal love from God. Rest easy , God Bless You. xo
