There´s so many memories that I can share about such a wonderful lady. She def got her flowers while she was here. I remember as I walked into Grace, the director walked me and her room and was like I bet you know her too. Talking to Darlene and I lit up like she sure do. She had my kids when they were babies. One of the finest who dedicated herself to every child she came into contact with. I´m sure going to miss you and your wonderful encouragement. God def got some beautiful roses in His garden. Love you more than I can ever say
