My heart is saddened to hear of your departure. I appreciate you for being in our lives for so long and making my dad happy. I will always remember the good times and laughter and of course all the great advice you gave me over the years. I remember when you let me cried my eyes and my heart out to you and never judged me afterwards. I will truly miss your sassiness. I love you! Yvette Daniels

Deepest Condolences and prayers for the family, Saddened by your loss. Heaven has truly gained an angel, Fly high Niecey..
My condolences to the family. It was an honor to have Ma Mims in my life. We would always laugh when it came to her little evangelist (what she always called my daughter) She would always have encouraging words to share. She was an awesome person, I'm going to miss our chats. I thank God for the time we had with each other. She was truly a blessing to me. I love you Ma Mims.
