Very sorry to hear about the loss of your loved one. May you and your family have comfort from the words at Revelation 21:3, 4. “The tent of God is with mankind. . . And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”

I’ll miss you so much Grandma Lola. I remember the day I asked you if I should call you grandma because you genuinely felt like one to me. You always cared about what was going on in my life and never missed a birthday. I’ll forever appreciate that and love you! R.I.P.

Deepest condolences to the family of Moma Lola! We may no longer be able to touch her, but her loving, soldier spirit will touch us forever.

Grandma Lola was so full of life and positivity. Her smile was contagious, and she cared about everyone that was connected to her in any kind of way. She always wanted to know how I was doing and create small talk even if it was a 5 minute conversation—it would make my day. Grandma Lola was so supportive and I’ll miss her sweet voice, you just knew she genuinely cared about you by the way she talked. I’ll miss her asking, “where’s my girl?” “How’s my Gigi doing?” just wondering what I was up to and then we’d see each other and she’d smile from ear to ear. I’ll miss that unconditional love that we shared so much Grandma Lola. I love you so much, you’ll forever be in my heart. - Love Gigi
