    Salina (my angel pie face) It’s so hard so see your beautiful face in an obituary. My heart and prayers go out to your family. The absence of your presence will be hard for them, as they will miss you so. You were definitely a ray of sunshine in our lives from the moment that you were born. I’m so thankful that you placed your faith in Jesus and you are now in His presence. No more suffering, no more pain. We know we haven’t lost you, for we will see you again. So, see you later beautiful girl. I love you! Aunt Brenda

    Salina,
    Girl we have seen and done it all. I watched you go through so much and got to see you finally find happiness in Rickey. You were always a fighter so when cancer came, like everything else you had faced in life you fought and refused to back down. You loved in a way few ever do .. with all your heart and so those who were honored to call you friend, family, or spouse received a gift that forever changed their lives. I will never forget you or the times we had. And will still call your phone when out Pina Colada song comes on because I always did. My daughters will always love Aunt Salina and the grandbabies will know how we talked about them and your love for them. You were my sista, my friend and I love you girl. Kiss Hunter Faith for me and I’ll see you one day soon.
