The most thing I learned from my cousin was that laughter infects everyone Aretha's laughter was like no other, no matter how bad you might feel talking to retha and to hv her laugh would always mk me laugh she healed others with her beautiful laugh. Aretha and me were very close we talked at least once a week then sometimes it would be hours. I miss our calls hearing her laughter. She passed away 3 days before my birthday my birthdays will never be quite the same. I love you Aretha and miss you sooo much..

This picture here was on her birthday. Aretha, was a very dear friend of mine. I’ve known her for over a decade. I had the pleasure to meet her parents, her three amazing daughters and their father before he too passed. No matter what the circumstances or situation. Aretha always had an optimistic look at life. Aretha, was one of the most pleasant women I’ve came across. That’s why I called him my friend . Aretha showed me her medical diagnosis. I knew that her health was in jeopardy. I’m gonna miss my friend. That had the most silliest laugh. There’s so many beautiful things about her, I could literally take up this entire page. No matter what the situation may have been she always said she loved her children and her grand children. I’m going to dearly miss my friend and her infectious laugh. God bless us all.

I remember meeting her on presidents day weekend for a BBQ. I was going through a tough time, and all of you took care of me that day, even though it was my first time meeting her and others . She turned up with all of us, talked to me like a friend fed me and I found out tierra straight up stole her laugh and mannerisms lol. she is a one of a kind person and she'll be missed dearly by everyone who she crossed paths with.
