You are so missed mama, love you and we will see you again.
I am so sorry to hear the passing of Aleta. She was a wonderful woman, full of love and kindness. Rest in Peace.
As I told her last July, I will see you again. I loved her.
It was so good to see and talk with you last July especially when I realized that we both were dealing with severe health problems. Peace be with you now, and I pray for God’s love for your family as they deal with your loss. Seeing the family pictures were wonderful, as they show the love you shared with each other. Peace til we meet again, Your Cuz, Mary B.
I miss you Auntie 🦅
