I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your beloved daughter , mother, sister ,aunt, and friend. Lynn was a mentor to me in my younger years , I used to babysit her children while she worked for the Hematology Oncology office in Elizabeth City . She was a very smart lady , always smiling and always very kind. Not only did I have a relationship with Lynn because I worked for her , she was also my friend . She has been a family friend since the day I was born. I looked up to her because she was a strong mother , half the time she raised her kids all by herself ,and let me tell you them boys were something else.
I still love you guys though , Ronnie & Billy will always have a special place in my heart , and Nikki as well God rest her soul ! Meme I admire you for always been the rock under Chrissy and Beccas feet. You are a wonderful person and you will always hold a special place in my heart. Chrissy your the best sister anyone could ever ask for you always done your part and you are to be admired for that . Becca you have grown up into a beautiful young lady, and that precious lil girl of yours is a wonderful gift from God , love and cherish her forever and always ! I love you ” Chew ” Tobacco !
(Daddys nickname for Becca ) And Ronnie and Billy you guys have got to be strong for your grandma and aunt , not to mention each other.. Love you guys !
anyways I am only on phone call away if you guys ever need to talk or need anything. May Lynn now rest in peace. I love you Lynn heaven has now gained another beautiful angel !
When the warmth of the sun touches my face,
I see your smile and feel your embrace.
I hear the whisper of love in the wind
And I know that you are close to me again
The rain speaks of tears and the thunder of pain,
But soon the sun comes the earth to reclaim.
As the days come and go and the world moves on,
I know you’re still here, you’ll never be gone.
On the night the Angel came and took your hand,
We cried as you left for an unknown land.
But Heaven rejoiced as you came into sight,
For your soul was a diamond, shining so bright!
The only thing greater than the loss we feel at the passing of a loved one, is the joy the angels feel in Heaven when they arrive. (Author unknown)
May God bless you all and may He lay his hand on you and take away the pain of your loss. Stephanie will surely be missed.
Barbara, Chrissy, and family.
I was so sorry to hear about your loss. I will have you all in my thoughts and prayers this week. I went to school with her and can remember going to the trailer and spending time with her and Chrissy. You are in my prayers at this hard time in your lives.
Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. May the words in Philippians 4:6,7 give your hope and comfort.
