PeeWee was a wonderful woman, with an exceptionally large heart. I always felt loved around her, and never felt judged in her presence. She loved her grandchildren & her children with every fiber of her being. She will be greatly missed.

Peewee was more than just my cousin, she was the sister I never had. That being said, she is the only "aunt" my kids had on my side of the family. And everyone of my kids and grandkids adored their Aunt Pee. I've never met anyone as good-hearted as she. I never heard her speak bad of anyone, no matter how bad she was treated by some. She always smiled and a kind word came from her lips. God has watched over her for a long time. Now she can walk beside him as he smiles on her and lovingly holds her hand. I will miss her more than words can express. I love you, sister.

We lost Pee Wee this past Saturday, and it was a tremendous loss to all who knew and loved her. She was the most loving, caring, and generous person you could ever know. She gave of herself, even when she needed to be cared for. She never failed to appreciate the smallest of things done for her. Her Thank you's were sincere and heartfelt. She fought a long and hard battle. She will be rewarded in heaven, for her selflessness,generosity, love and caring she gave to all. I will miss her dearly, but knowing she is at peace and pain free will help me get through my loss of a wonderful niece. love you Aunt Susie

Dear family of PeeWee, I am sorry for the loss of your loved one. I wish to share with you comfort from the scriptures.. The Bible holds out a wonderful hope for our loved ones who have fallen asleep in death. Please read John 5:28,29 in your Bible. Another wonderful future promise is found at Revelation 21:3,4 where it states that , pain and death will be no more. The former things will have passed away. As you read these texts in your own Bible, may they be of comfort to you. Sincerely Dianne Mullins
