We shall miss your beautiful smile and happy spirit! Thanks for being a family friend since your days at Eisenhower Middle School. You were one of the "kids" who grew up with my kids and then you became amazing adults! I'm proud of all you accomplished and pray that you rest in the peaceful arms of our Lord Jesus Christ.
