I knew Missy from KFC. We joked around a lot. She was sparky and I was sparkett. I enjoyed working with her and I am very sorry for your loss. She will be missed.
I am so sorry for your loss! Missy and I were pretty much together all through grade and middle school. We kind of went our different ways in high school but all the memories from my younger years have her in them, I was so taken back when my Mom called to tell me she passed, what a shock! Gus, George, all of her family I am so very sorry, you are all in my prayers! She was always a great person and now can spend time with her Mom and Grandma!
One word comes to mind when I think of my high school memories of Milissa — laughter! Thanks for bringing joy to those around you. My prayers go out to your family as they begin to heal from their loss.

I just found out about Missy passing. I am so very sorry for your families loss! Missy was a wonderful person! We hung out in our younger years and had a lot of fun! She always had such a big heart and sense of adventure back in the days I knew her.
I ran into Missy and her son in 2005 at Job service.
As I stood in line talking to this young man no idea who he was when Missy came up, it was her son. I hadn’t seen her or him since he was just a baby. Small world and a wonderful surprise to run into them after so many many yrs!
She will truely be missed by all who knew her and loved her! Again Iam so very sorry for the loss of this beautiful lady! May God and the Angelswatch over her and her family!
