Vivian Douglass –\u00a0(1937 – 1999)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>She was the greatest woman who ever lived. When she smiled, the world seemed so much brighter. If you weren\u2019t feeling good she could make you feel better just by walking into your room, sitting on the side of your bed and speaking a loving word. She did everything she could to make your day better. She didn\u2019t hold anger either. Miles down the road you could smell the love coming from her kitchen. If she had it and you needed it, it became yours. Laughter was something she loved to hear and be involved in. She was serious when it came to her relationship with Jesus Christ. Playing in church or with the Bible was not an option in her home. Speaking your mind and opinion with reverence to her was allowed, but she did not tolerate disrespect. She would wash your back if you asked, cook your favorite meal if you asked and she went the last mile for her children. Nothing was too much for her children. Even when she was diagnosed with the dreadful disease that took her life, she protected her children from the pain that she was feeling. She shared what was happening to her body so that they would be informed and educated for themselves. She had one husband and treated him like a king.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>She was the brightest, most pleasant parent at PTA. She really meant that any one of her children could call her anytime of the day or night. As night closed in on her life she still represented a child of the King. \u00a0She maintained her dignity, her kind heart, her loving spirit and her smile. I know all of these things about her because I am one of her children. God\u2019s greatest blessing to me was giving me her as a mother.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

She was born on June 9, 1937 and her name was Vivian\u00a0Douglass. She departed with life on November 23, 1999.<\/p>\n

My sisters and I along with friends have sponsored and produce several events and designed the smile for life pin that was inspired by our mothers demand that everyone keep a smile on their face no matter how hard times may get. And that is just what she did. I thank her for passing that beautiful peace of life on to us and we hope to pass it on to the rest of the world.<\/p>\n

She individually touched the hearts of each of these women and many more people alike. She practiced what God taught that was love.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
