Amanda was my sister- in - law, but we were more like sisters. I have so many fond memories that we shared together. We used to put on some music & dance our shoes off. Our last dance was to some zydeco music. No matter the age or cituation, she was always ready to dance. Amanda, I love you dearly & I will miss you. When I get to heaven, I want my dancing partner back so we can dance among the stars in heaven. Thank you for being a part of our family. ♡ ♡ ♡

Terry and Family, we were so sorry to hear about your mom passing away. It's never easy letting someone go that we love but we realize that one day we will see them again. Remember, the Bible says , "To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord." That's our promise, hang onto it. Prayers are being said for you, remember that.

My grandmother was very special to me along with my grandfather aka uncle Bubba! We always had fun in the summers when we spent time together. She would put makeup on me and fix my hair. Buy me pretty outfits. I LOVED my grandma very much and will miss the times we had together. Bubba, thank you for taking care of my grandma and being the great husband you were. The difficult time you had lately. You are amazing and now I know why God put you in our life. I love you so much and I'm proud to call you my grandfather. Love Kim
