Momma I love You!!
Eva you were one of my favorite people, you were so good to everyone you met. Love u Eva!
Red was such a beautiful person inside and out. She was such an important part of my childhood. The world has lost an amazing woman. Love you!
It’s hard to say goodbye to someone you have known since she was 6 years old. We had such goodtimes growing up and some sad times. Too lose her this soon is just heartbreaking to a lot of her friends. Every one who knew her as a friend knows that she was a friend for life and would do anything for you if possible.
I love you “Red” and will always miss you. You took a part of me with you because I know that there will never be anyone else like you in my life!! If I know you as I do I know that you will be there to watch over your family more than you were able to in life. I will see you again when the time comes! LOVE YOU!!!!
You were a very special friend. We will love and miss you so much. Love and miss you.
