Tributes from her daughters:

If you knew my mom then you know she was one, if not the best, person/mother who was put on this earth. She was stubborn and hardheaded as hell, but she had the biggest heart anyone could have and was so selfless. She made people happy, feel loved, feel important, she was truly an angel disguised as a human. She changed people’s live for the better.  I’m just so thankful I got to know her, to be her daughter. I hope I can be even just 1% of woman, person, mom as she was because that 1% is a lot and i couldn’t be more than that even if i tried. She has been through so much, but always fought long and hard. She was truly a fighter and no matter what it was, she never gave up and now I’m just happy she is at peace, and not in pain. I know she is up there in heaven now giving them all hell and making them laugh at the same time. I’ll miss hearing that beautiful voice of hers and her witty personality. We got to talk to her one last time and we told her that she can rest now, because this isn’t goodbye but see you later. It’s hard to explain how I feel since it’s a feeling of relief she isn’t in pain anymore, but sadness and there will always be a piece missing, but i know it will feel up again once i see her. I will love you forever momma, thank you for all you did and most importantly being you. We had ups and downs, had a difficult life, but I never felt I wasn’t loved and i have always loved you. I can make you proud and become someone you can be proud of. I can’t wait to see you again and catch up, so look over me until then and know I know you are always with me. I’ll never forget you. You’ll forever be a puzzle piece that fits perfectly that makes up my heart.

Love Britany

My mom was one of the most kindest, caring, and strongest person that I have ever met. Her whole life she never gave up, and kept fighting no matter what was in her way. We haven’t had an easy life but she was always there for us no matter what. She had spent a long time sick, and I am so glad that I got to spent those moment with her. She was the best mom I could ask for. I will always love her, miss, want to be with her and touch her, but I know that’s not possible. I know that she is in a better place, happy, in no pain and not sick anymore. I have no words to describe how I feel, and how much my heart hurts and it always will. I wish she was here but I know that is not possible, but I know that she will always be in my heart and with me no matter where I go. Mama I will always miss you, and wish you where here with me. I will miss your voice, your hugs, I will miss everything, but I know I will get to do that again one day. I know your happy now and that is all I could ask for. I love you, always will and I’ll never forget you. Goodbye mama.
