  1. My beautiful mama my heart hurts beyond any words could ever and I mean ever explain. I wasn’t ready for you to leave me it’s not fair. I pray that you knew how much I loved you when you left this earth and I also pray that you knew that you were one of the strongest women I knew. You were an amazing mother and grandmother an amazing person in general who was loved by so many especially your family. I’m really gonna need GOD to carry me through this one! The pain is unbearable I can only find a small and I mean very small amount of comfort knowing that you are at peace and no longer in pain and no longer suffering. But I want you back I know it’s selfish but I can’t help it! I really wish I had gotten to see you awake one last time so I could have told you how much you meant to me and how much I loved you and just how special you were to me. I needed more time with you But GOD had other plans and I promise to do my best to stay strong because I know that’s what you’d want me to do. I love you and miss you with my whole entire heart and soul! Until I see you again Brandy Lynn ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

All the times you’ve been there when All 3 of us messed up. That will never be forgotten. Your contagious spirit and how you lit up a room with your beauty is unmatched. I’m heartbroken 💔 😥. I love you so my much and will miss you dearly until the end of time.
    Love Your Little Lilly ♥️
