In honor of the greatest lady in all the world, my Mother. She was there in good times and always in the bad times. She was a fun time Mother. She planned things around her children, we were never left out of her plans. She was our provider, our doctor, our nurse and our banker. She was a single mother for 71 years. She was preceded in death by her parents, who she took care of until they passed away. She fulfilled the scripture, Exodus 20:12; "Honor thy father and thy mother that thy day may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee." She also nursed her two sons, Buell Hanford Underwood in 1995 and Leibert Manuel Underwood in 1996 until their passing. She was blessed by God with a loving heart and spirit. Her love and warmth radiated to all those around her. She had a special place in her heart for her Pastor, Rev. Leon Frost. She will be missed by all. Until we meet again, her loving family friends.
