My momma was the best mom to us kids. She was so beautiful and loving and caring. She would do anything for those she cared about. She was truly the strongest person I ever have known. She fought so many health battles and she always came out stronger. Up until she passed she kept saying she was going to fight and beat this lung cancer but unfortunately it was a beast and took our momma from us. She loved her food that was for sure she loved cooking for us and going to eat at her favorite restaurants with us. She loved movies and music and her youtubers. She loved her dog teddy so very much. My momma was the best grandma to my daughter Isabella, she adored her and helped raise her other granddaughter Genevieve. She always did the most for us and I will forever be grateful for everything she did. Life is not fair and took our amazing fun loving mom away and I wish somehow she could come back as we all miss her so much. We love you mom. I hope you’re talking with your mom and Jim again and Elaine. You have so many people you missed up there and I know you’re no longer in pain. Please always watch over us. We love you rest in peace momma.
