Queen Victoria

Our beloved 96 year old mother, grandma, and great grandma, Victoria Perkins, passed away at 9PM on Saturday night, July 19, 2014, at The South Seminole Hospital in Longwood, Florida. We are celebrating her memory at The Altamonte Chapel Community Church, Sunday, August 3rd, 2014. This is not a viewing, as there is no open casket. This is a chance, in a quaint remembrance service, for us to honor her life, with photos of when she was alive in the flesh, and to wish her spirit well as she joins the loving arms of other loved ones who have passed on before her, in heaven. Mom and I have decided to perform grandma's favorite songs, in honor of her memory. I've worked hard to create and edit her tribute video.

The quantity of our family may be small. But the quality of our family is large. Our love for each other transcends space and time. Victoria’s will to live was more powerful than that of a champion olympian. The fire in her soul propelled her forward despite age, debilitations and limitations, purely because she valued the power of life-- and God rewarded her for this gift.

We are a very close, loving family. “Three generations”, we were proud to say. She did live longer than the average person. With relatively good health until the last month. We are grateful to God for that. But the fits of tears come and go. It's difficult to move on from someone you grew up with, especially one with a strong personality like hers. Especially after being her caretakers for so long. I hear her voice. I see her face. I look at her pink I Love Grandma mug that we usually make her coffee in every morning, and start crying. Cant look at her purse or recliner she’d always sit in, without feeling pain. I hate death. Even though we’re happy her spirit is now free and joyous, up high with loved ones and the Divine... We miss her badly... Thank you for your prayers & support. Your kindness will be remembered... God Bless...
