Amberly Ashanti Presley was born June 28, 1998 to the proud parents of Joseph and Katrina Presley. Amberly was born into the worldfull oflove , joy and happiness, which is shared with her family. Amberly left behind to cherish her loving memory, her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Winbott Presley ofMerville, Indiana; Jackie Hall; uncles, Nathaniel Taylor, James Wiley, Antonio Williams, Gregory Williams, Andrea Taylor; aunts, Cherice Presley, Winthia Presley, Cathrine Presley, Virgina Rogers, Barbara Dix and a host ofother relatives and friends.
Dear Mom and Dad, don't worry! You brought me joy, just as much as I gave you. The reason I am happy is because God sent me to a rich family, not money rich, but rich oflove and happiness. 1 could not have been a happy baby ifyou did not make me that way. I am the gift of that God thought you should have, because he created a two and a million gift, you and me and daddy. With every tear you cry, smile so that I will know that you are thinking about all the good times we had together. Do you remember when the nurse first put me in your arms? I do, you might have an angel but you did not see the angel I saw in you. For a minute I thought God had sent an angel before I knew he had sent you one. When I looked into your eyes, it felt like I was in heaven because you were not just beautiful on the .inside , but also on the outside. I can really say to you thank you for everything andfor being the angel in my life like I am in yours. An angel shall reserve what is coming to them and don 't worry , my work is not done, I will send another angel. I am not sleep; I am watching over you. And I will rest in peace knowing that you two are my parents.
Love always Amberly
