To the family of Easter Holmes, I'm so sorry for your loss, my thoughts and prayers are with you'll, may God be with you now and always.
I will forever cherish the birthday and anniversary cards Big Moma has sent me for the past seven years. She always made me feel like a grand daughter. I will always hold steadfast to the memory of her spending the night and helping with Xmas dinner one year that I was hosting the family because I broke my ankle. We always had the most indepth conversations which always ended with I love you. She will be missed.
My mother Beulah Perry always talked about someone named Easter when I was a child and several years later, I finally met Easter during her visit to California. She was classy and dressed very well and she was kind. I was drawn to her immediately. I had the honor of cooking dinner for Easter and my grandmother Bertha Booker during our family reunion in Los Angeles. I told her she reminded me of Della Reese in "Touched By An Angel." Easter started laughing. She was a very classy and highly respectable women whom I was glad to have as one of the pillars in our family. We had a special bond. When she call you and ask you to do something, you can't say no. We would send each other birthday cards. I haven't spoken to Easter in a few years but I will never forget the impact she had on my life. It was such a blessing to have known Easter. She was very strong on family and tradition. I love you Easter and you will be missed. God rest your soul.
