In loving memory of our cherished grandmother, whose presence brightened our lives in so many ways. We’ll forever remember the summer visits when she’d come down to Baton Rouge, spending time with us, sharing stories, and filling our hearts with love. Her baked goods, which she lovingly shipped to us, and the thoughtful birthday gifts she always picked out with such care, will forever be treasured memories. We will also never forget the joy she brought when she danced, a reminder of the spirited, fun-loving woman she was.
Grandma’s home in West Virginia was a place of warmth, where we gathered to make memories that we will carry with us always. She was truly blessed to have a legacy of five generations, each of us touched by her sweet spirit, encouraging words, and unwavering perseverance. Her love and strength shaped all of us, and we are so grateful for the time we had with her.
Though she may no longer be with us, her love and wisdom live on in each of us, and she will be deeply missed by all her grandkids, great-grandkids, and everyone who had the privilege of knowing her. You will always be in our hearts, Grandma. Love Clarissa, Monica (granddaughters), Ajia, Eric (great-grandkids), and Zaia (Great-great-granddaughter)
Clara and Family, precious memories live forever. Keep those memories close, as your Mom will always be in your heart. ❤️ May God continue to comfort you, and know that we are praying for God’s Grace and Mercy to surround and strengthen you. Placide Family ❤️ (Your Louisiana Family )❤️🙏🏽
