RIP Mrs. Fannie. I’m thankful for her making quilts for my boys. She was so talented. She made the quilts when she was 90. My boys use their quilts on there beds every night. Such a beautiful soul.

I am really going to miss you Aunt Fannie Lee. When Jr. and I got married, you welcomed me into the family as if I was your daughter. You loved our children and Lord knows they loved you. You were cut from a different fabric; they don't make that fabric anymore. You will truly be missed. Your last words to me were "I love you too Cynt." Rest on...
