Velma was one of the most beautiful and kind people I’ve ever known. She had a heart as big as Dallas. She loved her grandchildren fiercely and took great care of them when they were born until they were grown. She will be greatly missed by so many. I loved her from the moment I met her. May she rest in the arms of Jesus whom she dearly adored.
