Teleah :We  knew nothing about the day that god was going to call your name in life we loved you dearly in death  as much when you had life it broken our hearts to lose you But you don't go alone for part of us went with you the day  god called you home you left us peaceful memories your  love is still our guide and though we cannot see you and alway at our side our family chain is broken and nothing seems normal. But the chain will link again someday

Words cannot express how much I am going to miss you. I will miss your welcoming joyful spirit. You were always smiling and laughing. I will miss the times when I would come in your room and we would talk and laugh or just sit and watch tv together you would always support me and give me the best advice on any and everything I did or would be planning on doing I will never forget your lasts days where I would tell you I going to work and you would say ok "baby" see you later. I remember on sunday you would knock on the door and ask are you eating now "baby". Always wanted me to go back to school and learn whatever I could always wanted to see me succeed you were always in my corner rooting for me no matter what I did you were here for every high and every low and for that I will forever be grateful for your love and for you being my auntie I love you forever and always see you in the sky some day.
