I would like to thank all my family, friends and coworkers for all the love and support my family and I have received during this very difficult time.  A special thank you to the Gibson House for making my mom’s last three weeks of life as comfortable as possible.  The care she received was incredible.  Thank you to the staff at UNC Rockingham Nursing Faculty for caring for mom after her strokes when I couldn’t.   I would also like to thank Aging Disability and Transit for their support over the past couple of years before mom became bedriden.  To Fairs Funeral Home, thank you for making the final arrangements for my mom as easy as possible.

Pastor Owens, Chris Rice, and to all the  Pallbearers thank you for making my mama's wishes reality.  I love you all.
