Brenda Kay Nesbitt

As we were catching up with old friends the other night one of our closest childhood/fami,y friends reminded us of a memory of momma that pointed out her personality and sense of humor all in one...
    
    It was one of the  weekends Mike T. spent the night at our house.  Momma got up one of the mornings and asked us if we wanted pancakes for breakfast. And that's when Mike expressed,"I like PANTY CAKES!"...Then momma looked at him and said , "Boy you better stay away from my daughters!"  Hilarious! Momma will always be most known for her smile,sense of humor, and laugh! We love you momma...even our friends that you "adopted" as your own....

Growing up, I heard so many stories from my mother about the fun times she (Marie Nellum), Mrs. Nesbitt (Freeman), and Sylvia Graham (Neal) had during their chilhood. I'm so sorry for your loss...may God keep and bless you all in your time of bereavment.

You were always there when anyone had a problem or needed advice. We laughed together ALOT, we cried together, we even sent a prank caller on their way, those are the memories i will hold next to my heart until we see each other again. God must have been short on angels because he called you home and you went with Him. Youll be in our hearts and thoughts, and will truely be missed but NEVER forgotten.   

   
         Love you
          Miss you

You will always be ours. In our hearts, in our thoughts, in our lives as we remember your laugh, your wonderful smile. Your sense of humor will still make us laugh, sometimes cry.
You are my baby girl, you always will be and we will miss your presence. But we will remember.
God knows best what we need and what He needs, and I guess He needed you with Him.
I'll see you again, I know, when my journey here is completed. Meanwhile, know that I am missing you, loving you, thinking about you always.
You will always be my baby girl.

My heart goes out to the family, you are all in my prayers, may God bless you and keep you.

Love,

Tina and Joe Garcia  

As your oldest, you were always hard on me to set a good example for my younger siblings. Sometimes I didn't understand and mistook your love and advice as simple nagging. But it was because of you that I felt inclined to get a college degree in engineering, instead of just being a plumber like my high school guidance counselor had suggested (and you went off on her too ).

But no matter how hard-headed I was, you still forgave me and loved me and supported me. When nobody understood me, you did. When nobody seemed to care about me, you did. When everyone thought I was mean, you understood me. When I hit hard times, you and dad were there to comfort me and help me see that I would be fine. You motivated me to get up, dust off my shoulders and keep moving.

Yes, our similarites created rifts and other times laughter...but through it all you showed me that you loved me like great mothers do.

I know you worried that I didn't love you because I've been both silent and distant...so I thank God that we had the chance to talk before you went home to the Lord.  I'm glad I was able to make it clear to you that you meant the world to me and I love you beyond any words I could speak.

Mom...my heart aches when I think about how I will miss you...but I'm comforted in knowing that you openly received Jesus' offer to get reacquainted when we last spoke. That prayer we had was amazing because it was the first (and last) time we prayed together.  A memory I will NEVER forget.

So mom...this ain't goodbye, this is my "see you later" message.  I am comforted in knowing that you will be at Heaven's gate waiting with open arms when I get there.

And just so you know, I am enterting seminary school starting in the Fall of 2012 to fullfill the work Christ has called me to do in ministry, music and missionary work around the world.

I love you mother and thank you for everything you taught me and all the great laughs and cries we shared. I'll see you when I get there

Your Son,

Shaine
