A Tribute to
Cynthia Davis- Milroe
by Cheryl Davis-Kimbrough
Mom, you were my world when I was a little girl. You became that
shoulder I leaned on when I reached adulthood. You were the very essence
of charm, warmth and determination. Raising two boys and a girl in the
heart of Jeffrey Manor was not an easy thing; yet you made it seem effortless.
You helped give me a sense of self-worth that has been the foundation of
every experience in my life. Without it, I would not have had the sense of
balance, esteem, and confidence that has carried me through many trials
and tribulations.
You were with me through thick, thin, and everything between. I love
and always made everything alright. You were the greatest, strongest, and
most intelligent person I know. There is no way I can really thank you for
molding me into the woman I am today.
But I want you to know that I miss you like crazy. There’s not a day that
goes by that I don’t wish you were still here with me.
I thank God for allowing me to pick you for my mother.
I don’t believe there is any other woman on this
earth, past or present, who
could have accomplished
the wonderful things that
you did as a woman,
wife, and a mother.
Love You Always,
Cheryl
