    Kim, Jason, Liana and family. So sorry for the loss of your Mom and Nanna.

    Your Mom was a great lady. She had a “say it like it is” attitude, which is what I loved about her the most, she had a sassy wit and a gentleness about her that she showed only to the people who were close to her.

    Just know that her spirit is soaring above the clouds keeping watch over the people she loves the most.

    I loved her and will miss her.

    Bevy
