A MESSAGE FROM YOUR BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTERS Rita– There are so many memories of you that I don’t know where to begin. What I do know is that I will miss your beautiful loving spirit, your bright smile, and most of all your touch. You will forever be missed and never forgotten. Love you forever!. Priscilla-I love my LuLu, she will always be my baby! She loved her some Madea, we were always laughing no matter how many times we watched it. I stay making my mom laugh, every time she see me. I always say...heyyyyy babbbyyy… and she would say it back. I’ve always gave her a personal dance show and all she would do is laugh and tell me to move. yep that’s my baby Jessica-I remember when I was 16 and got sick, she never left my side no matter what and I was in the hospital for about 2 weeks. If y’all know us y’all know me and Priscilla always fake arguing in front of momma and she always tell her to leave me alone and we all just laugh because they know I’m the baby and no matter if Priscilla her favorite or not she got my back. The love we have for you is unspeakable; you will forever be in our hearts; We love you mom
