I Miss You
I will miss the way you smile. I will miss the way you cook, comb your hair, the way you look, and the way you cared. You told me you would always be there when I needed you. I know now that you are in a better place, with God sharing his love, mercy, and grace.
Love,
Your great-grand daugher
To My Grandmother, Momma Cola
Momma Cola, you will never know how your sweet spirit made me feel. I am glad that you moved to MS as I was able to see you more and get to know you as a Grandmother. I want to thank you for instilling love and peace in my heart, no matter the circumstances.
Thank you for attending church services with me, my son's first birthday party, my Superbowl party, and other special events. It meant much to me. Event though you wont be here for my official wedding, I know you will be there in spirit.
You will be missed a great deal. May your soul find rest in Heaven.
Love,
Charisse, Cedric and Cameron
January 2005 you spent nearly two weeks in Atlanta with my family and me. I treasured each moment. Receiving the wisdom of your years and being able to finally take care of you meant alot. I remember us grocery shopping, going to church, taking rides, and you teaching me how to make salmon croquets.
I remember all of the summers I spent with you. Each one holding special memories. I remember the excitement I felt each time I arrived to stay. I truly miss those times.
I call you Baby, but you were Mom. God is good. I was sooooo blessed to have you as a mother, and even more blessed to have you with me for so many years. You were always there for both me and my children. You loved them as your own. I love you and miss you.
Love, your daughter
I remember spending the summers in Tallulah and you cooking everyday. I loved the tea cakes, frying fish on Saturdays, and us walking from town with bags of groceries. Fun evenings spent sitting outside at night with rags smoking to keep away the mosquitoes. Then came time to care for you. We began riding back to Tallulah, going out to eat, and to doctor's appointments. You told me you were tired and wanted to go home. I didn't know what you meant then, but I do now. My heart is so full now. I miss you already. I will always cherish the memories and forever will you be in my heart. I love you.
Your Granddaughter,
Barbara
