    I still can’t believe that you are no longer here but I still have our memories forever. You always showed me how much you loved me by shedding tears everytime you saw me and your face said it all. Coming home is forever changed because I won’t see you. Rest well Auntie ❤

    Ms Tina was a sweet and funny lady….she will definitely be missed…RIL and fly high.

    Mrs.Tina was a sweet lady. She was like a mother to me and I’m happy I was able to meet her and pamper her. She loved getting her nails done. Sometimes when the family couldn’t take her to my salon on the day she wanted, I would make time for her to pick her up. I knew how much she enjoy to be pamper. Going to miss you Mrs. Tina! You will never be forgotten. Love you very much. See you one day with our lord.
