I am blessed to have known her. Down through the years we would see one another at Children Medical Center when I'd bring my daughter for Medical appointments. She was always a delightful sister to talk to and to see that smile. At church she made you feel like she was always glad to see you.
To the family lean on Jesus Christ. He is our stronghold in the time of trouble!
