Our sweet Mamaw passed away on Monday, September 15th after a week long hospital stay. She had not been feeling well and sadly, developed pneumonia. Although she's been ready for a long time to go to heaven, it still hurts to lose such a wonderful lady. I'm so thankful for knowing her and wish that my boys could have had memories to go along with the pictures.

She was a saint, a wonderful example of how to treat others and live each day. We knew that but the outpouring of love and comments from those who knew her proved the same. She had the best sense of humor. Before I left the hospital one day earlier in her stay when she was still speaking well, I told her she looked good. Her response was that at 100 years old, you can't be choosey. The day before she passed was especially emotional because she was having a hard time getting words out and we struggled to understand her. She had asked to see Cooper for days so we loaded both boys up and took them to see her. Before we left that day, she was able to look at me and say "take care of them"......to say she will be missed is an understatement.
