Mariah loved her grandmother Martha. They shared a very loving and close bond. Together they could be seen doing so much. Mariah had a desire to help others. Her relationship with her brothers and sisters was also very special. Mariah was often sought after by them for her advice, encouragement and guidance. She was the glue that bonded them together. Mariah's love for her siblings was as strong as what she had for her Angel. In 2010, Mariah was blessed with Angel, who was the center of her life. Angel gave Mariah the motivation to be the beat mom she could be. There wasn't an obstacle to great that could keep Mariah from providing for Angel.
