View all 10 ReflectionsYour daughter meant the world to me, my brother and my momma. She raised my brother and I. My momma was a single mom that had suffered every abuse imaginable. Your daughter was just a baby when you died but she was so proud of you. She is forever in my heart. My mom and little brother are with her in heaven now. We called her Anie. I loved her dearly.
