As mother lay and await her place in the glorious Kingdom of The Lord-she uttered but three things that will forever resonate in the bowels of my memory; "I'm going to miss yaw', take care of your daddy, and I'm ready to go home." And on November 19, 2013-at the ripe young age of 79, mother's last wish became a reality as she passed away in the presence of my father; her beloved husband of 58 years.
Sad as it may seem, there is not a day that goes by that I do not think of this strong; fierce; funny; beautiful and courageous woman that I called "Mother" for half a century. She is finally at peace. She is finally at home..."Oh, What a Beautiful Thing."

Happy Birthday "Fatty" and Rest in Peace (R.I.P.)
