Mama, today is your Great Grandson Travis Lamar (AKA Lil Engineer- The name that you gave him because you said he was so smart) birthday and he is 2 years old. He still looks for you in the bedroom at my house and often times he talks to your picture saying "Hi grandma" as he always did. Several times I've witnessed him laughing out loud in his sleep and I wondered was it you playing with him. I assumed it was you because it's something that you would do. You loved him so much and you are so missed by everyone you loved. I will always love and miss you mama, until we meet again, Donna.

Grandmama, it's hard to believe rhat you're not here anymore. My mother ( your daughter Sheila) has been gone 11 yrs. It's all hard to believe. But we all felt your presence the day we laid you to rest. That gives me comfort. And your sayings and your wisdom ( which you expressed when I lived with you). You being gone is something I've accepted but is surreal. And forever will be. I'm glad that you're United with my mother who you couldn't get over leaving. Im glad you lived a long full life. As grown as I am, I know you still worry about me (and consider me a "baby" and I don't mind it. Thank you for everything and rest easy Grandmama..you've earned it. -Little Ray Ray

Grandma, I miss having you around and you instilled so many virtues in me that made me the man that I am today; For example, I would borrow money from you and you would say " Now don't try to pay me back by giving me a little money at a time. The way I gave it to you is the way I want it back". And I did. I knew if I didn't give it back to you the way that you wanted me to, I would be out of luck. I love you and I miss you everyday. Travis Lamar do too.

I often think about things that you had said that was very funny. One night I had got dressed to go to the prom and you said to me "Boy you look good enough to eat". Grandma you had whole house laughing. Also when I asked you how old you were and you said 100. We both were laughing. I love and miss you so much. Johnie

Mama, as I enter into the house I look into your bedroom and prior to leaving I look into your bedroom. This is what I did when you were here and I find myself still doing it. I don't know why I do it but I truly miss you. A day doesn't go by without me thinking of you. I will love you always, Charles.

Donna, I remember your Mom singing her first name and last name at the Stepper's Banquet! Do you remember that? And how about her asking, "What is wrong with you all, doing all that cackling?! We always had good laughs. Mrs. Brown, thank you for letting me hang out with my friend, Donna at your home, which was always open to me. I used to drop in from time to time after we had left home and went away to college, just to say hi. I will always remember your warmth and hospitality. My friend, you and Regan and Charles need not worry, she's singing with the angels now!

Mama, since you been gone I find it hard to sleep. I miss you and you are on my mind constantly. Mothers Day is not the same without you. I will always love you, Regan

Happy Mother's Day Mama. A day doesn't go by without me missing your beautiful smile, your pretty face and your words of wisdom. I remember a conversion that we had and you said "Girl your mother is your best friend". I will always cherish those words and everything that you instilled in me. You have been a great inspiration to me. Oh yes, I've lost my best friend, the one I most adore but most importantly you gave me a sign that your spirt is free as a bird and flying in the sky to be with the Lord. Oh mama, that made me feel so good. It was like a burden lifted off my shoulders and I said "Look at you mama, you are still comforting me in death as you did life". Love always, Donna
