June, Buck, & Doll,

It seems like only yesterday we were playing on the big field in back of Kingsland School .... walking to Miss Lillie's Store....playing the 45s by the Jackson Five, The Chi-Lites, and The Dells...trying to decide what type of Converse Sneakers to convince our mothers to buy... growing up together in the same neighborhood, loving each other..

Then we looked around..and yesterdays had turned into tomorrows...greeting each other as we took turns traveling back and forth to Lucy Coor to take of our mothers, and now GOD has taken both of them to live and to dwell with Him...Life Changes, Times Changes, and sometimes even friends change, but one thing will always remain the same..God's unconditional love for us all and that same love that took care of Miss Queen and my mother Liz, will definitely TAKE CARE OF US !!! Love you ...Keep praying, Keep trusting ... you will MAKE IT !
