You will be missed so much. I Love you.
You will be sorely missed! ❤️🙏🏽
Judy was not only my neighbor, but a friend, we laughed & cried together many times. I will truly miss her, but I know she is with our Saviour now.
Fran, You were a big part in mom and Billy’s life. Living on Paxton without you and Nick would not have been the same

GG Rest in peace Brady Emma and Noah loved seeing you I will watch over Chrissy for you job well done !!!!
My Louise,
You weren’t just my grandma, you became my mom, and my best friend. You are the person who taught me what it truly means to be loved—and how to love in return. You took me in when I had nowhere else to go, when I felt unwanted, and you gave me a place where I finally belonged.
Now that you’re gone, it feels like a piece of my heart has gone with you. There’s an emptiness I don’t know how to fill.
I love you more than words will ever be able to express. You gave me so much of yourself, so much of your heart, and I will carry that with me forever. I may never be able to repay you for all you did for me—but I promise to live in a way that honors the love you gave so freely.
I miss you. I will always miss you.
Love your Thelma.
This is such a beautiful tribute/memory of your grandmother Christina❤️ She will be by your side and be your Louise forever, always remember that 🙏🏼
You will be truly missed Mama Judy. Thank you for always being there for me and for always being 100 percent real! You taught me that kindness goes a long way and that we are all loved by the Lord no matter what faults we may have. I will always remember your kind soul. Thank you for allowing me to be part of your family.

Her & Billy were the first neighbors we met on Paxton, hard to believe that was 39 years ago. We miss both of them.
