Auntie Neise, there are no words I can use to describe the impact you've had on me nor enough portraits that could show the man you've helped me become. You have always put everyone first and served as a model when it comes to following God. Through you was I able to find him and only through him am I able to find peace in you. I love you forever and always.

PJ Richardson

You will never be forgotten and I know you are smiling on all of us. Thank you for the great memories that'll I'll never forget. I love you so so much. Love, Asia.

Neise, you will never be forgotten. Thank you for taking me in as your own and treating me like I was a part of the family. You probably never realized the impact you had in my life. The same goes for Roberta & the Smith family, you all will always have a special place in my heart. I love you all dearly and pray that God will give you the peace and comfort in knowing that she's resting in His arms. Neise, we will see you in paradise. Love, Tina

Neise was an amazing woman and I feel grateful to have known her. She touched so many lives and was part of our village in El Paso. Neise loved and cared for my girls, Kijonna, Gabrielle and Alexis as if they were her nieces. I know that her family will miss her deeply. I pray that you find comfort in your memories of her and in the knowledfe that others are missing her too. Andrea Pressley

It's said that it takes a village to raise children & you are a big part of our village. The amazing way your nieces, nephews, great nieces, great nephews turned out is a large part because of you & your nurturing & caring. Not to forget how when Mama went to Heaven how you took such good care of daddy. So rest now my sister. I love you Fay
