Nelia Clifton

November 24, 1949 — September 26, 2022

Mom,

We don't want to believe you're gone and we wish this day had never come. Saying "Goodbye" is painful and hurts so much more because you were so loved. Your illness was relentless mom. We all watched as you struggled to breathe. We pleaded for more time with you, hoping God would grant you and us a reprieve.

Mom the faith and trust you placed in God gave us all more time to spend with you. The additional time we spent with you revived our hope you would mend and survive.

God saw your faith and devotion to him and he knew how tired and fatigued you became. God knew before we understood, how hard you fought against your exhaustion and pain. God watched over you compassionately until he decided to end your ferocious fight. We will never forget how we saw God wrap you in his arms as he carried you away. We finally understood and knew our loving mom could no longer stay.

We miss you everyday mom, our hearts are broken and sad. We miss hearing your voice saying and singing "I just called to say 'I Love You'. I just called to say how much I care. How are you doing Little Angel of my life? I love you, love you, love you!" Our love for you, our precious mom, will never falter or fade.
