No words can describe joy and pain that Im feeling but to know that you are no longer in pain but in joy brings me more joy and less pain .....You were an ambitious , dedicated and strongly-willed woman. You always said I was gone be ight when my dad used to drop me off over there when I used to get suspended all the time lol . You taught me more about the Lord and used to teach me about his ways . I'm so grateful that you got to meet your great grandson before you transitioned...I love you gma <3. -JUNEBUG
