She will never leave my heart.🦋
My life is changed forever without you leading the way. My mother, and my best friend. I was so blessed to be your daughter.
My thoughts are with you. The death of a parent is never easy. I hope this plant lives on with you and when you see it remember her fondly.
Mrs. McElreath, you were always so kind to me growing up, even though I was constantly hanging around your home eating up your snacks and causing trouble. Thank you for giving me a safe, happy and welcome place. And for doing that for so many others, too. You were a wonderful woman and a fantastic mom to your girls. Rest well.
Love you Ash

Always wanting to reach out and help anyone, you had such a caring heart. Your going to be missed so much💔 I know your in a better place than us and one day I’ll see you again. I luv you cuz❤ Hug my sister for me❤ And watch over us as a family, your going to be missed.
Wishing you peace to bring comfort, courage to face the days ahead and loving memories to forever hold in your hearts.
Kathy made me feel welcome and comforted from the first time I met her. Christie and I often went to visit/hang out with her. She was always in good spirits and I will never forget her smile and laugh. She loved her daughters and grandson so much and it showed. I miss you already, Kathy, but I look forward to seeing you again one day ❤️.
Thank you 😊
I have known you since I was a little girl. You were always there to support Lori and I when we did cheer for Smyrna Road Runners. I have some of the fondest memories of you because you always treated me like family. I will never forget how much you adored my dad “Big Red” and every time I would visit you would always speak of him which helped keep his memory alive. I will never forget the day I walked into your house in Smyrna and said ‘my dad died’ Lori was right there with me through it all. The loss of a parent is one like no other but your memory will live on in so many that knew and loved you. You were an amazing mom and it shows in your girls today. They along with Brayden will continue to make you proud.
I love you ❤️
I have known you since I was 12 years old. You always treated me like a daughter. You were so beautiful inside and out and so kind to everyone you met. No matter what you were going through, you always had a smile on your face. You are missed very much but will never be forgotten. Your memory will live on through your amazing daughters and all that loved you.
Love you
