Funeral/Memoriams
BIRTHDAY
MEMORIAM
LATERICA HAMILTON
Sometimes memories sneak out of our eyes and roll down our cheeks.
What was once such a joyous day brings many painful sorrows! A day when silent tears are shed for all your lost tomor- rows.
No special birthday cards or gifts, just a mes- sage fond and true, to say that not a day goes by without precious thoughts of you. As the time passes by it seems that you are missed more and more but, we also know you are with the angels being cared for.
Happy birthday Later- ica Hamilton! We love and miss you, Angel!
