I will always remember Mozelle and think of her words of wisdom as I watch Sean and Evan grow up. They will know that she loved them very much.
"They don't come here sleepin' anymore, they come here lookin' around. They're gonna have to be smart to survive"
These are the words that came out of Mozelle's mouth at least 10 times a day since her first great-grandson was born 6 years ago. Sometimes she would just repeat it over and over. I used to wonder why she did this but now that she's gone, I think I know. 10 times a day X 365 days a year X 6 years =21,900 times or once a day for 60 years. She was just playing reverse catch-up for all the years she knew she wouldn't be here.

I'll always miss you Mozelle and tomatoes will never be quite as good without you here to grow 'em.
