The Beautiful Love Letter you left for the family caused me to reminisce about the good times we shared and just how much you love family!! I began to ponder just how much strength it takes to plan your own home going with such detail and then leave such a beautiful Love Letter to encourage us to be strong. The realization made me wipe my tears, square my shoulders, and look to the hills from whence cometh my help. I could only imagine the strength it took for you to mourn the loss of your mother father and 21 siblings and continue to be the symbol of strength that you were. Now I understand your scripture selection for our family reunion. "I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me. " Losing you marks the end of an era and the beginning of a new generation of matriarchs and patriarchs. I pray this next generation can effectively instill in our children, grands, and great grands that they can do all things through Christ. I pray we make you proud as you cheer us on while we carry the torch of the Next Generation . I love you and miss you. Your memory will live on through us.
Lovingly submitted by your niece Maureen Brown Terry and family
