I want the whole family to know you"re in my thoughts & prayers at this sad time,Mrs.Marie,was beautiful,and caring and loving,She always tried to help others,I wish I had the right words to say at this sad time,Especially to Mr. Coney,This makes his 2nd time to lose a dear wife to this terrible disease that they call the big "C" Cancer.
The last time I seen Mrs. Marie was Feb.28th,at the funeral home,because my own daddy died Feb.25th,2007.She had just came back from Jackson then,from seeing one of her doctors.I was"nt directly kin to her,but my cousin was married to her sister Frances Jones,and one of my cousins is married to her brother,Glen.I hope all of the family understands just why I could"nt face the funeral home so soon after losing my sweet daddy,because its just been 4 months.
But we are sending all our love,to all of you.Just remember she is no longer suffering,she is once again a whole person,just as she was before the cancer got her.She is smiling down on every one of you right now,wishing she could tell you to don"t worry about her,she"s fine,and she is"nt in pain anymore,and oneday she"ll see all of you once again.
All our love,
