A most beloved and blessed woman passed on this day. She was very much a mother figure in my life and she will be sadly missed. She was a friend, a mom, a wife, a grandmother, a great grandmother and someone who would lift you up when you were down. Her laughter was the most beautiful noise you could hear. A belly laugh with a huge smile to go along with it.
Through my life, she inspired me to use my voice in a way that touched the hearts and souls of many. Through the gift of song, we would sing and add a bit of happiness to someone who once felt alone. We inspired those in jails, in hospitals, nursing homes and those forgotten on the streets. She had a huge heart that will never be forgotten.
I ask for all those whom read this please keep her family in your thoughts and prayers, as this is one of the hardest times they shall ever have to endure. Thank you for your compassion and love's care.
