I've known Queen B since she was 15yrs old throughout the years Ebony remained the picture of strength and fortitude. Oh, I can't forget that laugh she had most of the time when she would break out with that laugh of hers it alone would of course make everyone else in the house would laugh right along with her, I miss her so much I truly miss our daily talks and our thoughts about faith, love, family and anything else that would come to mind, I almost called her this morning because it was one of her treatment days and while I was waking up and grabbing my phone I had to suddenly remember that she's my angel now and I have to wait to see her again in another place and time my heart hurts because she's absent and right now I'm present even though I know she's in a better place it still hurts that I miss my girl.

Ebony you are gone at such a young age. I remember the days that you sang in the Children's Choir at church alongside my children. I know that you were ill for quite some time so take your rest in the Lord now. Diann Fryer and Family.
