Oh, Aunt Missy. I still cannot believe you are gone, but am comforted knowing you are in a better place. I will always treasure the memories we had, and have been thinking of our trips to Canton, your bubbling infectious laugh, and how you could cheer up a room when you walked in. You were a beautiful person, with a beautiful soul. You will be missed.
Granny and Papaw-- I cannot imagine the pain you are going through, no parent should ever lose a child. I love you so much, and hope the days and memories bring comfort to our family's pain.
BJ and Taylor-- I am so sorry for the loss of your mother, and at such a young age. She loved you. As we all love you, and you have a huge family who is ready to comfort you, and wrap their loving arms around you.
Rest in peace, Aunt Missy.
