Eulogy for My Mama

      In Loving Memory  of  Shirley Gayle Booth Nash Nov. 12, 1933-July 2, 2018 For those of you who don't know me, I am the youngest daughter and the fourth child of six.  I am named for mama, sharing the middle name, Gayle.       Job 8:21 says " He will yet fill your mouth with laughter and joy." Mama had a loud, joyful laugh and she was well-known for that laugh!  Her laughter could be heard from far away and she made those around her laugh along with her.  That was one of the saddest things after her stroke in Feburay of 2017....she was unable to laugh like that.  My sister told her caregivers that she hoped mama would improve enough so that they could hear her laugh. Sadly, she did not, but we will always remember her laughter and joy.         She was easy-going and rarely got mad, but when she did.....whew!  you had better look out.  One days, she appeared in the yard where we were playing and started tearing up on my youngest brother's legs.  Mi
