Dear Mom, We gave flowers to you while you lived, so you could smell the fragrances, and the sweetness of love. The chastisements you gave us made our life so much easier, that we are able to smile when everything seems to go wrong, you were so full of God's love and affection, that it has really had an impact in our lives. Remember what's wrong and what's right, you taught us well, God's way or

no way at all. We will miss you, we will think of you often and cherish the memories of you, for you were one of a kind.

We Love You Mom Your Children, Hazel Ingram James Jackson Jr. Vickie Ragsdale Steven Jackson

Our lives are sad because you are gone But in our hearts we know you're not alone. God let us have you for a limited time, Then called you home to rest; Dear, sweet grandmother of mine. Countless times we needed you, countless times we cried If our love could have save you, you wouldn't have died. Our love grows stronger after each passing day Treasuring the memories that will never fade away. There will never be another like you, God broke the mold It will be up to us for all your Greatness to be told. You left an impression that will forever be in our hearts Your love will burn on in us, you started a fire with your spark Mama, we love you and miss you very much How wonderful it would be we could feel your touch. The time has come to say good-night, but never good-bye You went to be with Jesus and rest on high.

Your Grandchildren, Quincy Jackson, D’Carsha Jackson, James Jackson Jr. IV, Cleophas Ingram, Jr., Cedric Ingram, Barisha Jackson

Granny, you, went down, When you got ready. Up, whichever way you went. To get your crown, robe, mansion, harp, and little golden shoes. Of course, you've got your ticket already to be turned in. Because he signed it long ago. Now you've turned it in so that you walk that golden path to lay your feeble head, the aches and pains are no longer there. It's well understood that it is filled with happiness and grace. So right about now Granny, you should have a smile on your face. So we're not complaining, but miss you much, already.

Love, Your Great Grandchildren & Great Great Grandchildren

Today I left my loved ones and as I go I pray, Lord don't let them grieve too much, because I've died today. Let there be no wailing echoing the halls, the same halls that held laughter and answers to my calls. I pray they all take comfort accepting the true way and listen when I tell them these three things today. Love will be forever, a promise that will last. So love me more than ever now my time with you has passed.

And last of all remember the glowing love to be, when our eyes meet once again, for all eternity.

A reunion occurred in heaven this week Of the sweetest and most joyful kind As Mom’s spirit moved beyond this earth Released from her mortal life And what a reunion it must have been! A joy beyond our conceiving When Mom met Dad in heaven again Ending her dignified grieving

And we are certain Dad is still holding Mom’s hand While she cherishes each moment by his side And they’re experiencing the joy of being together again Catching up on the time they were denied

We are confident they are also looking over us Hoping this happiness will lessen our pain As we contemplate the joy that they finally feel Now that they are together again

And though we’ll miss them terribly And will long for them with deepest grief

We are reminded that love is more powerful than death And this knowledge gives us comfort and peace

We can still feel their love surround us Giving us a desire to continue on To try our best to live our lives well In the ways they would have done

For we know this isn’t the only reunion Someday we’ll be called back to be with them For life can lead us to greater happiness With the Lord and our loved ones in heaven So although we’ll miss our Mom profoundly Our grief is somewhat lessened For we are comforted knowing that she led a good life And she and Dad are now together in heaven

During these trying hours, the presence of family and friends has been one of our sustaining elements. Your prayers have increased our faith. Your words have encouraged our sad hearts. Your presence has given us an arm to lean on; your food has helped us maintain our strength, the fragrance of the flowers, the thought of every card, the visits, the phone calls, added a touch of beauty to a seƫng that was full of gloom, and because of you the burden that seemed so heavy is lighter now. We pray that each of you will be showered with God’s blessings. ~The Family ~ A‘ã®ò› Pƒ½½›ƒÙ›ÙÝ Cedric Ingram Cleophas Ingram Jr. Quincy Jackson Wayne Ingram Jr. Trent Ingram Jackson Ingram HÊÄÊكÙù Pƒ½½›ƒÙ›ÙÝ Kevin Malone EƒÙ㫽ù R›Ýã®Ä¦ P½ƒ‘› Cedar Hill Memorial Park Arlington, TX
