Went to school with Anita she was always kind and a smart girl with a wonderful spirit may her family be covered by the blood of Jesus.
Anita was an adopted part of our family (Evans Family). She was loving, kind and could “light up a room” with her presence. So sorry to hear of her passing. She left a mark in my heart.
My thoughts and prayers are with the family. Anita always made me smile. Thanks for your kindness. Mrs Williams (Fairwood )
Nita, thank you for everything that you have done for us, you had a big heart and I know that you are very proud of your family and I know how hard you worked to take care of yourself and your family……
I will truly miss you for the loving and kind person that you were. We will always share some beautiful memories. Rest in heaven and stay at peace. Love you always.
You truly were my EVERYTHING! For 53 years you were my teacher, mentor, my love and my rock. You taught me how to love and be loved. You loved me unconditionally and effortlessly. You made me the strong, independent, determined, hard working and driven woman I am today. I never took a moment of loving and showing you love for granted. Some of our last conversations were me wanting to make enough money to really retire you. I could never repay or even come close to giving all that you gave to me. You’ve always been my safe place. No matter where I was in the world, I knew home was with you. You taught me how to be self-sufficient and take care of myself and my babies, but you never taught me how to do this without YOU. I could never prepare myself for life without you. For every heartbreak you were there. Now I have to trust God to heal the hole left in my heart when you went to be with Him. I know that you were proud of me and I will forever strive to make you prouder. I love you with everything in me and I miss you already. Until we are together again, I’ll carry the love you had for me and all of the wonderful memories we made and shared together. Rest in His presence my love. My Aunt Nita. MY GREATEST HERO!
You’re such a beautiful and strong woman and you treated me just like a daughter. You got your wings to soon and you will truly be missed by all who knew and loved you. Say hi to my Mom up there she’ll show you the ropes
I found myself throughout the year literally counting the times when we would just talk! Rembering you answering the phone “hey bae,” I truly miss you! Shoots 3rd grade, long time when reflecting on all life’s memories, even when we had breaks the reunion was a moment never missed,right where we dropped off babies a little bigger…. Us a little older, still us! I miss you and may you have a “HAPPY BIRTHDAY IN HEAVEN “, looking down of all that you love. Miss you Boochie bunches…
