I know you are finally resting in the arms of Jesus. I love you & will always miss you! You were the best Nanny ever!
Prayers for peace for everyone that knew and loved you…
Much love and prayers. God is our strength!!!!!!!!!!
R.I.P. nanny we love and already miss all your wisdom and talks
Sending our love and prayers, wish I could be there to help ease the pain. Sending you all the hugs I can give you. Nanny was an great woman and I am very thankful for being able to share with time with her.
Doss, you were my absolutely best friend EVER! We two were so close and shared everything and oh, how I miss talking with you now. I told you things I could tell no one else because I knew you loved me and my family as much as you loved yours and you would take my faults and problems to God for me. I WILL NEVER EVER FORGET YOU !! Many times these past 6 years I’ve told Jim I wish Doss was here …you would know what to do or you would have an answer to something I couldn’t remember. I could always call you and ask “who was….or what was…?” and you could give me a quick answer. I’ve never known a woman that loved like you did and never ever had a bad word to say. You raised 8 children and helped with my 2 with a crippled leg and never an abundance of money. My children didn’t have a granny and so you became one for them. I LOVE YOU MORE THAN WORDS CAN EVER EXPRESS LOVE….I KNOW YOU ARE IN HEAVEN WITH JESUS AND I THANK GOD YOU SUFFER NO MORE. Someday I will see you, my dear friend, again and we will walk together on streets of gold.
