I did not know Mrs Simmons but I would see her out in her yard often attending to her flowers and her home. Always waving at anyone that would pass by. She had a very special spirit arounds her that just seeing her would make you smile. God Bless her family and friends You were blessed to have such a hardworking proud woman in your life....

I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your mother. Please know that she is resting in his arms now and he is rocking her oh so gently. He will protect her and give her peace for now on. May our heavenly Father provide you with inner-peace, strength and love to make your days brighter. God will be right by your side Cat, as you walk each day on this earth. Just remember to hold on to his garment and his unchanging hands.
