Terry & Leslie Black has sent this Expressions of Sympathy card.
Wow! I don't even know where to begin. You are absolutely a light that will never grow dim in my life. There is so much I'd say if I could just make the words come out. Thank you for allowing me to learn and grow and become a better person because you came into my life. This world will not be the same without you. You touched and enlightened so many lives. I know that you are resting now. Probably already got a garden going on Heaven. However I know that by far you make it brighter and more colorful than all the flowers in the world. Hug and kiss everyone for me and I can hardly wait to dance on those golden streets with you. I'll try to take care of Terry as good as you did although I'm not sure that's possible. You are an amazing woman Maw. I love you and miss you. Prayers are going up for peace to the family. Love your daughter from another mother. Leslie
You will be missed maw black
