Laying here thinking of you mom and can’t get to sleep. I love and miss you so much ❤️
Deloris was a sweet kind woman whose love for Jesus Christ shined in her smile. She was a sister to me and she loved my brother Tommy. They were always together, cutting up and joking, and needing each other like they needed air. Thank you Deloris for treating me like your sister. I will miss you and will see you again in Heaven!

To our dearest mommy…we all love you more than words could ever express. You were always there through good times and bad. Your love knew no bounds, we will be eternally grateful for the way you cherished us all. And especially how you went above and beyond with your undying love and care of me and Eddie during our toughest times. Where would we all be without you. You truly where our angel on this earth and now in heaven. I’m so sorry these past few years have kept us apart but know you were always in our hearts. We will all miss you so much especially your beloved grandsons. If I only had one wish, it would be to have you here with us forever. I know that can never be, but I also know your love will never leave. May God wrap you in his loving arms and keep you safe. I know Eddie has been waiting to cherish you once more. Rest easy mom and know we will miss you every second of every day until we meet again. Lots of love…Michelle, Andy, Brayden and Joshua.
