A person is born with only one name, but throughout this thing called life, you have seemingly picked up several names such as “Lucille”, “Lou”, “Ma”, “Mama”, “Lil’ Mama”, “Londa”, “Lynn”, “Bay Girl”, “Bunny”, “Honey”, “Lil’ Sis”, “Grandma”, and the list continues. It gives our family great joy knowing that you have solidly held all these names and represented them all very well. We have stored every memory in our heart, along with the love and laughter experiences you’ve created. The legacy you leave behind is truly built on a solid foundation and for that we say - “Thank you”.

We thank God for the additional ten months he graced us with your presence to allow us to shower you with unending love
