I am truly going to miss Aunt Big Time, and miss hearing ALL of her poems, especially Lies, Lies, Lies, which was one of my favorites. We were so lucky to have known and was able to spend time with her. Love, Victoria White McKissick and Family

MS. TEEN~~U R EMBRACED IN THE ARMS OF OUR JESUS CHRIST.

You are now resting from your labors.

My precious, Aunt Teen, every step you took on this earth was fruitful. You lived a life that was certainly pleasing in the eyes of God. And you also invested in me, so much time, money, love, and much more...always told me how proud you were of me. I enjoyed our long talks and listening to you when no one else did. You surely had a hand in my rearing. I enjoyed everything you've cooked, esp cupcakes and your chicken and pastry. I take with me all I've wisdom, courage, and all I've learned.
~ Your favorite niece
