A CKNOWLEDGMENT
To You, Our Grandma
Those special memories of you will never leave our
hearts. No one but God could ever tear us apart.
Such pain filled our hearts on that day you went
away. What we’d give to have you back if only for a
day. Cam’Ron, your first grandson, holds you dear
to his heart. Aryah, will remember the good times
she shared and will never let them part. I love you
deeply and will miss your smiling face. Akyria knows
you’re up above watching her finish her race.
Mariyah, your baby, we could never compare.
Akyria and Mariyah will soon ask about you. We’ll
let them know you’re always near. We’d tell them
about you, Grandma and how your heart was filled
with Gold. We’d tell them how much you loved us
and selfishness you never showed. We love you more
than you will ever know. But it’s time that you rest,
god has called his angel home and He only takes the
best. We love you Grandma,

You were places here to share you love, a gift from
God, our father from above. He loaned you to us to
be our mother. You can’t be replaced, not by any
other. You held our hands to lessen our tears. You
focused on our needs and dried our tears. From the
oldest to the youngest you were the best. We tried
your patience, often failing that test. You sacrificed so
much in your lifetime, giving us hope, dreams, even
