Our Mama always put others before herself, thinking of them whether it was through a ‘Get Well Soon’ card or a handwritten thank- you note, Even during her sickest times, she continued to prioritize others. She was “the” funniest person I “ever” known, had the greatest personality, and her laughter was so precious. She was extremely proud to have worked for the Mississippi Highway Patrol. It meant so much and the people she worked with. Throughout her time with the Highway Patrol, she received many awards for her dedication.” She was strong in her faith and she loved the Lord with all her heart. She “loved” flowers- planting them, weeding them, and always picking off the dead ones.
