‘OUR PHENOMENAL WOMAN’
MARY PITTMAN MORRIS 10/10/1949 – 04/12/2021
It’s been a year already. They say that time is a healer, but as time goes on, we seem to find it just as hard to face the fact that you are gone.
It’s now the anniversary of the day that you went away. And we are standing here still in disbelief. And believe us when we say, you will never be forgotten. And every year we still shed a tear, but it’s only be- cause we love you so much, and wish you were still here.
Love: Shannon and Solomon, Jarvis, Antwan and Candy, Kai, Adri- ana, Kayla, and a host of grandchildren, great-grandchildren and other family and friends.
