I remember that Possy enjoyed "pretty" things. She was particular about how Sharon and Linky looked. One day, I did not have a dress to wear. She had Sharon let me borrow a pink and brown dress. It was pink on the top and brown on the bottom. I had never seen anything like it before and thought, "This must be what "pretty" looks like". I will remember her fondly and am sorry that I will not be celebrating her continued life with God with the rest of you. God bless each of you.
