I can still smell your incense and hear you saying “What you want little girl?” when I was bugging you. There’s no one like you. There will never be anyone else like you. I’d do anything to see you with a sweatband and tights dressed like it was 1982 again with that gold tooth with a V inscribed in it. I’m already missing your cooking and your laugh. Losing you is like losing a mother. I am sad but happy you’re at peace and no longer have to worry about your heart condition. That house is not a home without you, it’s now just a structure with memories. Rest in peace, Auntie. As you would say, love thee!
I love you, Sis. I miss my best friend, my soulmate, and my partner in crime lol. I never imagined Life without you, but here we are. I’m happy you’re resting in the arms of The Lord. Peace be yours, Ms. Val.
I Love Thee so much, rest well, and I’ll see you on the other side.
In the Name of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Amen
I will forever remember that beautiful smile! Love you Ms Val rest in paradise! Love Fe
Time is something we take for granted. Even though we cannot really contain it we misuse it and think it will be around forever. We often say we have all of it in the world as well, we say there is much too little.
As children we played together and as adults we drifted apart. I hope in the next dimension we are connected to create awesome memories that we didn’t take “time”for here.
Love you cousin… rest peacefully
I will miss my cousin Valerie very much. Mostly her sweet, quiet, gentle and calm demeanor and character. She reminded me a lot of her mom, Aunt Clothilde, who was also quiet spoken and gentle. Valerie you will be remembered for your great qualities. Rest in peace and I hope to see you again when Christ returns for those who followed Him in Spirit and Truth.
Your 2nd Cousin, Janice Baker Harris Cole
