In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the First Christian Church of Pearisburg, 208 Fort Branch Road, Pearisburg, VA. Online condolences can be sent to the family at givensfuneralhome.com
Legacy of Love
A wife, a mother, a meme too, this is the legacy we have from you.
You TAUGHT US LOVE and how to fight, you gave us strength, you gave us might.
A stronger person would be hard to find, and in your heart, you were ALWAYS KIND.
You fought for us all in one way or another, not just as a wife not just as a mother.
For all of you gave your best, now the time has come for you to rest.
So go in peace, you’ve earned your sleep, your love in our hearts we’ll eternally keep.

Momma, I miss you very much. We are all sad, but know you are in Heaven in the hands of the Good Lord, “GOD” I miss you more and more everyday. You touched so many lives including our family and so many, I mean so many friends and our preacher, Kelly Keffer. I will always love you and cherish all the great memories that we had growing up, and all the good you done for our family, church, and so many friends. I know you are resting in peace looking down over us all. I will be with you one day soon, and I will see your beautiful face and want to hug you for eternity. It is very hard to deal with you gone, but you have no more suffering and pain. I will keep looking up at heaven and talk to you every time I go outside. You are very sadly missed and will never be forgotten. It hurts so bad because you were the best mother a person could ever have. I am blessed to be your son, and will continue to pray and talk to you and God. I will come back to this page again and add more at a later time. It is so hard to live a comfortable life without you here for and with us. R.I.P. Momma
