GLOBAL COMMUNITY REPORTERS

  I wish to thank all those who came to my parents final burial ceremony, and thanks to those who helped with the service either with their personal time, brought food, flowers or helped monetarily. It was appreciated greatly from the bottom of my heart. Everyone who came and introduced themselves to me, and to those who didn't, I really appreciated your presence at my ceremony on April 22. I have to say, April 22 was the hardest day of my life, and all of your thoughtfulness made it easier to get through the day. A word of thanks can hardly say how much your kindness meant to me. But as my mom would say, "Tank you tank you tank you!" My parents will be missed dearly and forever by all those who cared for them, especially myself, her extended family. Much Love and Gratitude to you all.  Thank you for reading. Kindly share also.
