    So heartbroken here but you’re not in pain no more baby Val. You rest now, your Momma, daddy, siblings & all your loved ones will miss you. You’re a Beautiful & Sweet Angel who everyone will miss including me & the family. We prayed you’d come out of bad sickness that took you baby but Maheo has plans for you. Please Maheo, keep her spirit alive and well to watch over her Momma who stayed by her side 24/7 to protect her dear precious Angel. Prayers to the Washington/Fighting Bear & Little/Killsnight Family who lost Sweet Baby Val, May she Rest In Peace. Auntie will miss your beautiful existence and pretty outfits, Love you Baby Val
